If you're optimizing for low noise I'm not sure the storm is the right block - not that it will hurt if you already have one - but something like a Swiftech 6000 will actually perform just fine with a low power (and so low noise) pump. Look at the low flow end of the block performance curves...
I had an AquaXtreme 50Z pump in the pipe line, which isnt precisely too low power/noise is it.

Reason I ask of 3/8 is because I can get it at like a third of price of 1/2 or 7/16... So its going to save me loads so I thought might be not too much of a compromise.
