By the way - there is a utility available on the IBM website for changing the operating characteristics of the travelstar drives. You can set the drive to "quiet" operation or "performance" - which is default.

If you have noisy IBM drives, you might want to check that utility out - it's available as a link off the tech specs for the drive above.
