2008-01-14Reviewer: Paul KellyDrive is extremely fast for transferring data. I have this in a HTPC build at the moment, idle noise is nothing more than a faint hum which is hardly noticeable unless you actually listen for it. Seek noise is a little more noticeable but not to the point that it is irritating. Its great value for money for a 500GB drive and I will be ordering a second one of these for my PC in the next week or two.
