See here for example: http://www.silentpcreview.com/section14.html
Like "IS the Silent PC Future 2.5-inches wide?", "Toshiba MK6022GAX 5400/16mb
cache Notebook Drive" and "Notebook HDDs: Hitachi 5K80 80G & Samsung MP0402H
40G"
Remember the Mac Mini runs a laptop HD too, and is rated at 18dB (bad rating..
but whatever, the thing is rather silent). The "bang for the buck" factor is
always true though..
