Re: WD 5000KS vs WD 5000AAKS

I couldn't say whether they are any better or worse than the 7200.10's Jammerlito dude.

The only reason I didn't go for the 7200.10's is because I heard they are quite loud when seeking and this drive is going in the HTPC which needs to be silent and WD are always really quiet compared to other manufacturers... it'd be fair to say I'm a fanboi hehe. In a way it's a bit of a shame though because this drive will never get used for anything other than mass storage, but I can't help but wonder how 4 of these lil critters would do in a matrix raid setup.
