So are you saying that you can not purchase these locally?Brum Man wrote:Oh ok, sorry for being not too bright! So what does the full acronym mean?
I take you are on America (just done a search for best buy and see it's an american e-tailor), and that is why you were asking if I can get these locally ie England, ah it's all falling into place!
I have no idea TBH what build they are sending etc, just that they are JD, but I spose all of them are labelled as that but they just change the build slightly at some point?
I can check out the local best buy and see if the case is dark or silver...but by now I would hope they are FDB.
They guy sent me a diamond max 9 plus instead. At first I was pissed but I found some specs that list the max 9 at 2.7 bels and the max 10 at 2.9 bels.
This drive (6Y160M0) has extremely low whine....way better than the samsung nidec which also vibrated. This one is a keeper and I've gone through quite a few. I know some people are down on maxtor but acoustically I like it!
Right now I have it in my SmartDrive 2002C (the smart drive is on rubber bumps laying in the bottom of the case) with a 5 volt Zalman fan sitting on top and its silent!
