It is connected to the PC via USB 1. ( I will connect it to a Powerbook next week ) I can hear a kind of fan ( or maybe is the drive rotating. Is it suposed to be always rotating ? )which makes an high pitch noise . And I can hear some strange noises like some metal thing is scratching the case. This happens sometimes (as an example,this happens when I select all the folders in the drive and then right-click in properties ) . Is this normal ? Everywhere I read it says this drive is silent but mine is not.

If Trent Reznor trusts them and uses 3 of them, then I am game to buying one. -------------------- Power Mac G5 Dual 2.0Ghz Rev. C, 2.5GB ram, 160GB External HD via FW800, FireBox, Logic Pro 7.1.1.
