    Well WD is 25db in idle, http://www.wdc.com/en/products/produ...99&language=en
    and here is a calculator to convert the units http://www.asknumbers.com/SoundConversion.aspx

    It shows the drives are virtually the same. Bels vs decibels are an easy coversion unlike sons to dbA
    We'll se when spcr users post some subjective/objective observations.

    Some nice decent gains here. HDD's need a standard speed increase now. make everything 10k and we'll be good.

    ...you can buy them...

    Ever shop at Micro Center? I might try to talk home office into getting us to carry the Samsung F1, if demand is high enough.

    Still waiting to hear something final on the 7200.11 controller issues. Did they solve the issue of OSs not seeing the onboard cache?

    What has gotten into Seagate lately? They're making loud drives that aren't the fastest out there...

    that's not the 320gb f1 I'm talking about though, and the 750gb f1 doesn't have all 334gb platters (nor the 500gb one)

    hmm i just got my 640GB F1

    speed is great, a huuuge stepup from my 7200.10 (2 of them in raid 0 are slower...)

    still need 3 more drives, 1 more 640GB in Raid 1 and 2 320gb for apps+OS in raid 0, i'm getting tire of dividing my data on 4 different external drives to back it up

    but i really want 2 single platter 320 gb drives for my OS, WD is out because of the access times, but i'm still hoping to get a F1 (new one is much more quiet than my 7200.10s) or the 7200.11 in the next month , my lappy wants a 320gb drive to ( 400€ for hard drives )

    What do you mean by that "2 of them in raid 0 are slower"? Are you trying to say one 640GB F1's in raid 0 isnt looking good or one 640 F1 is faster then 2 320gb 72.00's in raid 0?

    Bought a 500GB 7200.11 last week, briefly considered getting another for RAID... then these 320GB/Platter babies from WD and Seagate roll out...bah. Difficult for people who treat computer building as an art form to ignore. Less power, less noise and good performance alwayts make you stand up and take notice...even if you're not in the market

    The size (height) is impressive - I can't figure how that would fit into existing 3.5" format though, seems like the screws would be in limbo.
    Now get some more capacity in there!

    Here are the benchmarks or using google translate
    Access time seems high, but the results are very good.
