These are the equations and conversion factors needed:

     Bel   = log10(power)

     power = 10 ** Bel

     1 Bel = 10 dB


So, your calculation should be:

2021-08-23 23:42:34 dpchrist@dipsy ~
$ perl -e '$p=0; $p += 10**($_/10) for @ARGV; print 10*log($p)/log(10), 
"\n"' 14.9 15.9 15.9 14.7 29.0
29.696732023509


That said, I would just add the continuous fan noise:

2021-08-23 23:42:49 dpchrist@dipsy ~
$ perl -e '$p=0; $p += 10**($_/10) for @ARGV; print 10*log($p)/log(10), 
"\n"' 14.9 15.9 15.9 14.7
21.4058369416353


And consider the 29.0 dB HDD vibration separately.
