Could you link me to some reviews of the 320GB version?

Storage review has a great thread in their forums, as do a couple of others that i checked out and compared benchies to the 750gb version reviews on anandtech and such.
Id link you to them, but i just reformated my drive. Got a perfect (for me) system finally. The only PITA i wish i could replace is my PS, its great dont get me wrong, but its only flaw..... To many fricken cables......When i say to many, i really mean it.
Are you not a fan of the drive? If so can i ask why?

I'm not a fan of the drive, but I don't have any pre-conceived bias.

Actually... yeah. I don't like noisy drives. 😛

Not sure, but my Seagate isnt that loud for me. Could be that my raptor has made me immune.
 
the WDs are quiet. Seriously, if you're held up on the quietness of a HDD, you done good. 😛

just order the thang and be done with it.

i'd hope you're getting everything you can frm Ben at tankguys 😛

anyway, good luck with your build. :beer:
