Not with my limited experience. I have a 7200.7 and its noticably noisier than my 2 samsungs. Also spends more time ticking around and seeking for no reason whereas the samsung only does as its told
Barracuda's are fairly quiet (I have 4 in RAID and can't hear them unless I'm thrashing them to pieces.) However, Samsung's are quieter still.Originally Posted by Marcos
I liked this quote: "Let’s be honest: the only way to create a truly silent computer is to turn it off." I might create a system running off battery backed RAM drives in a TNN300 case just to prove them wrong.
The hundreds spending on more quiet equipments can be used to buy some top-notch sound isolation earbuds. Then you can't listen a thing from your computerOriginally Posted by Kez
