Seagate B2 7200rpm 20G - Your views??

[Cal99]

In the process of building my first PC on a fairly tight budget. So far i have a T'Bird 800, KT7, 128Mb PC133 Generic(i know) I want to buy the SB2, as it's cheap for the spec here in the UK, but i heard it's a tad noisy. Does anybody have one and would you recommend it????

There must somebody out there who has one - are they niosy in comparison with the rest. Need every bit of help i can get before i do/don't add the Seagate to my basket.

Cheers

Seagates reputation has dropped dramatically since the days of the original SCSI 'Cudas. General concensus is that their IDE drives are not in the same league as IBM and Maxtor.
