Hard Drive Recommendations Please

Am looking for a pair of SATA drives for my main PC since my last two Maxtor's have died.

Was thinking about a couple of WD 76GB Raptor's but not sure just how noisey they are.

Anyone have any sudgestions ?

Cheers, Lee

what do you use your pc for..?
raptors are generally best for serious gaming rigs or small servers - otherwise they are a waste of time...
