Gawd! Do you sleep with the TiVo beside you?
Seagates are the quietest drives out of the bunch and with the case on I can't even hear them. I even have an "older" 80GB Seagate equipped TiVo in the bedroom and can't hear it, and yes I have good hearing!
Correct, but this is also true due to a Series 1 being a relatively slow clocked machine anyway compared to modern devices. The chipset (the custom ASIC chip with the TiVo logo on it to be specific) can't support anything faster than ATA-33 anyway.(I think it can only run at ATA 33 max anyway due to the 40-pin cable?)
