I just bought a new Samsung 400GB drive [PATA] today and it's quite quiet I must say. And together I bought an enclosure to support it as my primary use will be for storage.

wow 400gb. how much did it cost?

For the drive [hard disk] alone is RM490 and with the enclosure, it costs RM580. I hope this new drive can last for quite some time as I am running out of hard disk space quite fast using my previous hard drive.

It should be fine... my 80GB WD drive is making noise too from the first day. Guess it's ok as if there's noise, means that the hard disk is making some reading or writing activities, and if you are scared, always scan the drive for any bad sectors and monitor it closely. But then my latest Samsung drive is quite quiet if compared to my WD. Maybe different manufacturers...
