I have a HTPC running MyMovies2 hooked up to my downstairs TV - it is in a closet so I have never noticed the HD clicking. I just built a new HTPC for the upstairs TV so my kids can watch all of the movies stored on the downstairs HTPC. This new upstairs HTPC is sitting on a shelf in the open with the rest of the equipment - DVD, SAT, WII, etc... It works great using the MyMovies2 Client and is whisper quiet, EXCEPT when the HD is accessed. The clicking is rather annoying with everything else being so quiet.
I threw in an 80GB HD that I had laying around since I just needed the OS on it with all of the movies streaming from the downstairs HTPC. I've read that Samsung makes quiet Hard Drives, but I want to know if there is something better.
Cliffs:
What is the quietest Hard Drive (size doesn't matter) I can buy?
Thanks!
