Same goes for the HSD, generally any spindle designed for CNC machining with a ER collet will be superior to a re purposed wood router.

We also have a fan cooled HSD spindle on our router that I love.

If your buying a spindle I'd highly recommend getting one that's water cooled or uses a fan that's not coupled directly to the spindle motor(HSD's are usually setup like this). They are waaay quieter.
