First of all you need to use a FULL DISK. Every drive will do a good job for half the disk. Its the second half of the disk where jitter becomes a problem, as well as centrifugal forces comes into play that they fail. (Some drives are not good in the beginning but okay in the end because they over compensate for this). You also dont get to see what speed the drive maxes out at. If this is a true CAV then it barely hits 16x near the end. If its a PCAV then it hits 16X around 3-4 gig data area...

How much did it cost? What about noise? Tray problems, looks??

Thanks...
