I have one velociraptor that is dead silent and another that is definitely audible. Not sure if that means there is a problem with it though. What are other people's experiences?

I have had my Vraptor for a month or so now and its dead quiet. I never realized how noisy my old 74GB raptor was until i plugged it back in last night and heard it seeking.

Got two of them plus a 500gb samsung tucked away at the bottom of the temjin TJ07, you wouldn't know they were there. Kind of miss the 'dududu' sounds of my last rig from when the HD was seeking, all i have to know this one is working is the blinking blue lights on the front of the case :D

I read recently on that removing the icepack loses 3db.
It could be one of yours is transfering more vibrations onto it.
