I have some DiamondMax 9 running (2x gamingstation, 1x workstation an 2x |
| 12 |
fileserver) for years now. I newer used a DiamondMax10, but the 9´ers are |
| 13 |
very reliable and silent. I have a Samsung drive in the fileserver, too, |
| 14 |
and the Maxtors aren´t much louder. Perhaps the DiamondMax 10 changed |
| 15 |
that, i can not tell. |

WesternDigital disks tend to be silent in the beginning and get very loud |
| 18 |
in the end in my machines. |
