John,

You aren't supposed to sleep on the job anyway, so we need to get you some noisy hard drives also.

I know a lot of folks don't like the Maxtor, but I use them and find them very quiet and reliable. There was a period about two years ago where we got some bad ones, but I think that is straightened out now. I think the Western Digital is also a very reliable drive and is not a noisy one to use. Those two would be my recommendation for you.
