Oohhh, nice choices!

I like the DiamondMax 740 because it has excellent specs, but I can't get a straight answer about wether or not it has an unusually high CPU usage.

I like the WD, because of the 8mb buffer, but I have had too many QC issues with them in the past. The SATA version should have a 3 year warranty, but for a price.

Seagate rules! My vote goes to Barracuda 5. Seagate is really on top of the HDD world. Check out their products at storagereview.com .
