Did see those, thanks (everyone)
The trouble is, the results seem to very pretty wildly from site to site.
I hear (unofficially) that Seagate has AAM disabled and instead routes
that functionality through something more obscure (due to a lawsuit
supposedly?)
If that's the case, I'd probably rather go WD, even though it seems to
score worse on average.

I was looking at these two:
Western Digital Caviar SE16 250GB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16822144701
Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 ST3300831AS 300GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA150
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16822148064
Heat & Noise for the Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 line

Heat & Noise for the WD2500KS
http://www.storagereview.com/articles/200507/20050705WD2500KS_6.html
I've had excellent luck with my WD3200JB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822144392
as far as reliability, I'm currently running 4 of them in two different
systems.
The Seagates are great drives as well, have a 5 year warranty, which
is great
if you plan on keeping them in heavy use that long.
