So, I'm looking for something quiet and fast. I hear all kinds of things about the faster hard drives having annoying whines. I don't want an annoying whine, but I don't want to have to wait 20 minutes for a level to load in whatever game I'm playing either.
Assume the rest of my computer is brand new and 90-95% of top-of-the-line. Are cheetahs too noisy? Are raptors? Is the speed difference actually noticible, or will a 250gig 7200RPM do essentially as well?
I don't need a *silent* pc, but it should be rather close. I'm planning on using a Lian-Li v1000 case, if that matters.
Any help, especially comments from people who actually have these hard drives, would be much appreciated.
