Yeah, I also have a Qunatum ProDrive 1.2GB drive and it is also louder
than hell, but works fine. I have gone through several cases trying to
quiet the damn thing down, but it is still loud. I would still take more
frequent backups to be on the safe side, but I think that the damn things
were just engineered to run loud. Kind of the Harley Davidson of the hard
drive crowd.
