I recently purchased a 200GB Maxtor drive from Scan... Well.. Lets just say the operation noise on that HDD is a little LOUD!
The clicking sound in this drive as loud as me snapping my fingers! I used to run Maxtor Diamond 8 IDEs and they are BY FAR quieter than these SATA (NQC) drives..
I was beginning to believe that the HDD is probably busted.. Anyone of you used Maxtor Diamond 10 Sabre series drives before? Do you hear these ultra loud noise?
I have a Samsung Spinpoint 160 on RAID and its virtually silent... Very dissapointed if this Maxtor is by default this noisy...
