After reading the review "New, Faster, Quieter:
The Seagate Barracuda 7200.8" http://www20.tomshardware.com/storage/20050317/index.html and being in the process of building a new pc I can't seem to figure out if I'm getting one of the new and quieter models, so I hope some one in this forum can help me out here
The one I want to buy is a Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 250GB (SATA / 7200RPM / 8MB) It has the number:ST3250823AS, but in the review the number on the drives end with ST3300832A or ST3400831A not AS so I'm not sure it's one of the latest models, as I have read that the later ones is very loud, and nothing like the one I have in my pc now ST3120026A that happens to very quiet, and is the reason I stick to Seagate hard drives (after buying my first fluid Maxtor, and finding out it was a really noisy bastard)
Can someone please help me find the right number for the newest 7200.8 250GB SATA drive, so I am sure I get the right (quiet) one?
Thanks.
