One thing i love with the The Medalists are louder, slower, and noisier (at least last time I tried). All you Hawk fans out there - check out the ST31051N and the ST31055N 1G's! We built a news server out of fifteen of them and a few 4G Barra's a month or two ago and haven't seen a single case of infant death. Their only downsides over the older Hawks is that they're a shade noisier and their cache is smaller. I would not be afraid to recommend one of these to a friend. I used to recommend the older Hawk 1G's but these seem like a fine replacement. http://www.seagate.com/stor/hawk/hawk2xl.shtml ...
