ST19171WC is a 80 pin SCA drive.
They are hot to the touch, noisy, but reliable.
You may need additional fans inside the Mac, depending on which Mac you have.

I while ago I emailed asking what to do about my noisy Quantum HD. I quickly replaced it with an old Seagate Barracuda 2GB HD I had. I found this Hard Drive just too noisy, and I decided that I now need a bigger drive. So I looked around I a found a Seagate 9 GB HD (a Barracuda) for a good price. However, before I buy it I would like to know if the drive would be quiet enough for home use.
Can any of you tell me if it is quiet enogh for home use? (Its model number is ST19171WC).
Anyone knows the right jumper settings for this drive?
I've got two of them but I have difficulties in getting them to work. I have a sca adapter with active termination and I'd like to use one as the last device on the 8600's internal bus (on the floor) or on the external bus.
