Does anyone know the make and model of the 1 TB hard drive that ships with the 2010 Mac Pro? I'm looking to buy an identical model and create a RAID 0 array.

Thanks
 
Just open up the DiskUtil and compare the part numbers?

Actually, there are 3 versions. I think Apple rather uses the bulk SATA 3GBit/s-version, aka WD1001FALS. Or some older revision, which you won't be able to buy.

I have 3 2TB Caviar Blacks, 1 in my Dell and 2 in external enclosures, and they've never seemed particularly loud. I plan to put all 3 in my new Mac Pro in a RAID 0 array, so that should be a real test of just how loud they are!

I can hear it when it's working, but only if I actually listen for it. I don't notice it during normal use. It's not what I would call loud.
 
thanks, its inside an enclosure. i thought system profile would bring this up, but no

and sorry for the hijacking 🙂
