I use a Maxtor 120GB with liquid bearings (and 8MB cache). I can't really
hear it above the fan of my Pundit (yes, I have Q-Fan on) after I set the
Accoustic Mananament Control to 192, the recommended level by the HD
itself. This HD was easier to get than the Seagate Barracuda IV, which is
tested by magazines at 40dB (instead of mine, 41dB).
