I have a htpc(use it for music, movies, and internet surfing) and I want a green drive as my boot drive. I had to many problems with Seagate 1.5 TB lp, so the choice is between the Western Digital Green 1.5 Terabyte or the Samsung 1.5 Terabyte F2 Ecogreen drive. Which drive is between the two is the most quiet?

I've heard good things about the Samsung drives. They are quick and fairly quiet. Check out the charts here on Tom's for performance specs and maybe check out a few reviews via google.

Samsung is usually the most quiet. But.. pick Samsung F3?
