Aren't these SAS drives ? Also, the noise. You're not prepared for the noise mate I tell you that.

Ultra 320 SCSI FTW!

Love those things. They do run hot though, you will need some space to cool it, and of course, an Ultra 320 SCSI controller card.

And they are only noisy if the bearings are going bad.

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.
