I'm not interested but I thought I'd give you my view on HDD noise: It's all about coupling of the HDD to the case. Instant vibration-amplifier. I never hear the seek noise of my HDD's as I've mounted them in a wooden fram with rubber between the frame and drives and foam between the wooden frame and case. The paranoid may use an extra ground wire to earth the drives, I've never experienced data loss or corruption. Click the thumbnail below for a larger image:
