hi, i just got a new Maxtor DiamondMax Pus9 200GB from dabs - one of the reason i bought this drive was because:
"All DiamondMax Plus 9 drives are equipped with FDB motors. This technology allows the drive to operate with very low sound output for performance users who are concerned about acoustics"
but this thing makes loud clicking noises? the noise apears (and is very audible) when i transfer data between the two partitions within the disk. it stops when the transfer is done. doesnt happen with small files but when i try and move say 700mb files thing noise is really loud? anyone know whats goign on here? andy.
