    Ok, my harddrive is so noisy that I´m considering a new one, I guess the most quite is Seagate, will a Seagate Momentus 7200.2 ST9200420AS fit in my Dell M65 ? I see it´s a Serial ATA-300.

    Thanks

    Well, the noise the drives makes when reading from the hardrive, it just sounds like my old Dell GX110 drive, just old and noisy each time it reads. I have a Dell C400 which is much more quiet.
