I just registered to write some abuse but since then have decided it wouldn't be worth it for my first post.
Instead I say +1 to the first reaction to your valuable addition to this thread.![]()
So the Apple store cannot put in a 2TB drive for you? Also, anything ordered online cannot be taken into a store for warranty work/exchange or...?
I agree 1000000000% with this guy they are mechanical and make noise this is barely an issue. I just cannot believe people are returning perfectly working machines on multiple occasions for this stuff. If I worked at the Apple store I would tell you to get lost. Get over it already and move on or get an SSD and void your warranty and be silent.

Easy there fella, no need to get yourself so worked up over an "issue" that doesn't seem to affect you.
Also, although it can be frustrating it probably is best to refrain from saying "Get Lost" to these posters as it will just reduce this thread down into some playground argument and detract from what we are discussing..
The point I am trying to make is that these newer mechanical hard drives that Apple is using does make more noise then the previous one's,
I just cancelled my 1TB 27-inch C2D iMac on the Apple Store,
since people seem to have a problem with the seagate-drives.
Just ordered a new one with the 2TB drive. Hope the 2k Norwegian crowns
(about 350 USD) was worth it! I totally agree with you that such a expensive piece of machinery should be quiet. Or at least somewhere near.
So is it safe to assume that no one on here with a 2TB has a problem with noise or have I missed a post?
" Normal sounds include:
1. Whining noise during drive spin-up.
2. Regular clicking or tapping sounds during drive access.
3. Hard clicks* when the drive heads park during power saving modes like Standby or Hibernation. "
