Hey everyone, I've got a 150GB Raptor drive in my system.
Just wondered but when I save Football Manager gamers or when Windows loads up, or sometimes just randomly....I get a loud noise coming from my system that sounds like the drive is reading/saving data.
Is it just because the raptor is a loud drive that its so noticeable? I've got a 500GB drive for back up which when i access that is pretty much silent.
Is it the raptor being so loud?

If i was to sell my raptor what drive/s would offer as good a performance?
I've been looking at the WD Caviar SE16 16mb cache AAKS drives, maybe one on its own or two in RAID.

Any advice or recommendations?
 
what would be the best ways of sound proofing the case? Obviously with late night gaming, the Raptor gives off a nice loud drone, which doesnt bother me, but gives a loud humming noise next door
