The 32272 and the 32171 are both ultra Barracudas. The former is a
new line from Seagate. A bit more space, less power consumption and less
platters.

You might also want to consider the ST32155W (the N, I have not seen
in a while), ultra-wide Hawk from Seagate.
If you do use Barracudas, as someone mentioned, you do not want to
skimp on lots of cooling. It also helps to use up an external 5 1/4 bay and
use one of those fan-kits that fit in place of the bay-cover.
