[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 6263"] something you need to be aware of is that compared to some other drives, the seagate barracuda's can be a little slow ( i hope that doesnt upset any seagate fans). The reason I say this is because I went out and bought the cheapest Dell I could a few months ago in order to setup my HTPC. It came with a 40GBseagate, today I ghosted it to a 250GB maxtor (cant think of the model) but it breathed new life and fast new life into it....With the pc on and performing a defrag, i could hardly hear the hdd going...admittadly...louder than the seagate [/QUOTE]
