Mac Pro Hard Drive Manufacturer

Hi guys,

Ordered a Mac Pro today and looking to get 3 additional drives in addition to the 500GB one thats coming with it.

Does anyone know what 500GB disks Apple are using in the Mac Pro, would be nice to get 3 matching drives to go in there when it arrives.

Cheers

I was thinking of getting the Seagate one with the 32mb cache, but im more interested in how quiet the drive is than the performance. Ive got the 250GB version of the WD AAKS in an external caddy and it seems quite loud.

Ive got 4 Hitachi SATA2 drives running in my current machine and they seem resonably quiet so maybe I might stick with Hitachi
