Vibration?

I'm thinking of buying the same drive and the reviews are scant so I'm wondering if it's really worthwhile.
Yes, I'd like to know as well, for the same reason.

One key thing is that the more you have to stretch out the sleeve to fit cables inside, the more "see-thru" it becomes. I generally use sleeving a size larger than optimum to avoid this issue. They look a bit loose sometimes, but you'd probably never notice unless you were looking really close.

Re: Would this be a good buy?

Additionally, does anyone have any experience with the Logitech Ultra Flat keyboard. Reviews for it on the same site again seem very positive, but I'd like to know if it really is quiet and a good all round keyboard, as it will see gaming use on top of everyday use. Not bothered about media keys an...

So, after having this WD 640 Green running non-stop for the past 11 months (8214 hours according to the SMART reading), if I'm reading the SMART report correctly, it has only parked the heads (15HEX = 21DEC) 21 times. Is that correct, or am I reading something wrong? http://www.black-talon.org/pics/...
