    I am led to believe that it comes with a Seagate, which would be a very good thing. Can anyone confirm this?

    Thanks I guess, that's a little too technical for me to understand :rolleyes:

    So does yours have a Seagate HD?

    Mine came with a Seagate. But I read that other peoples came with other HD's. Maybe depends on location. I'm in North America.

    Yup, that has to be the most silent and coolest running HD I ever owned.
