I have the same drive installed in my B&W G3 rev1 in the same way (6 gig slave, 40 gig master), but they're not that quiet. When I am copying/ and/or downloading a lot of files to that drive at the same time I can hear the drive writing data to it. The same for the 6 gigger. But that is probably because the B&W is sitting next to me on my desk. The HDD in the QS G4 933 at work on the other hand, also on my desk, is super quiet, never heard that HDD before. FYI: it is not really a DiamondMaxPlus, it is a relabeleld Quantum (Fireball?) ATA133 7200rpm. -- Marc van Gemert | MacSonar Support Team | Webmaster MacSonar http://www.MacSonar.net | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
