Hello folks.

Has anyone found any of the following Seagate Barracuda hard drive models to be significantly subjectively noisier than the others?

Are all the 7200.7's and V's just as quiet and "pleasant sounding" as the IV's?

(I feel like I've many times read that the IV's are very quiet.)

Barracuda IV (Ultra ATA/100)
Barracuda V (Ultra ATA/100, Serial ATA)
Barracuda 7200.7 (Ultra ATA/100, Serial ATA)

Thanks much!

Storagereview.com seems to say so yes.
Seagate specially design their drives to run cool and quiet.
