I have some DiamondMax 9 running (2x gamingstation, 1x workstation an 2x
fileserver) for years now. I newer used a DiamondMax10, but the 9´ers are
very reliable and silent. I have a Samsung drive in the fileserver, too,
and the Maxtors aren´t much louder. Perhaps the DiamondMax 10 changed
that, i can not tell.

WesternDigital disks tend to be silent in the beginning and get very loud
in the end in my machines.
