Re: Warning to all SPCR members: do not buy the WD10EALX
I have replaced two quiet WD5000AAKB-00YSA0 with two WD10EALX-009BA0 that have a firmware date of Jan-31-2012 this past weekend, and the two WD10EALX are not louder than the WD5000AAKB that they replaced. Having read this and other threads in SPCR forums, I had planned to return the WD10EALX if they...

Re: What drive to replace my Hitachi T7K500 320GB?
My 500GB Hitachi P7K500 is at least as quiet as the WD3200AAKS, and probably better made. It has slow 18ms seek times--slower than 16ms of the WD3200AAKS. Hitachi also has a 250GB 1-platter version of the P7K500. Thank you for sharing your experience. How would you compare the idle noise and vibrat...

The numbers listed under the "2.10 Acoustics" section (where the "FDB motor acoustics" table is located) are the actual measured values. If one were to look up the Configuration and Specifications page of ST3320620AS (Barracuda 7200.10 320GB, Serial ATA NCQ) in Seagate's Technical Library , for inst...

Nope, but I specifically asked him to verify this since the Product Overview on their website says that "400GB and below" models are supposed to be quieter, and his reply was that the numbers in the Product Manual are the correct ones. I saw your Antec Solo thread the other day, by the way. Good stu...

Seagate Barracuda 7200.10's Acoustic Profiles
http://s88519401.onlinehome.us/docs/100402369a.png So, 400GB and 320GB models are actually noisier than 750GB and 500GB models :x ? According to Seagate's representative of whom I obtained the product manual from, these are the correct specifications to refer to despite the discrepancies with the i...
