Post subject: Any quiet, small SCSI drives available? Archived from groups: comp>sys>mac>hardware>storage (more info?)
I like the reliability of SCSI and the speed though I'm not sure how close
an older SCSI drive would be to a modern 120 or 160 gb 8mb cache IDE
drive. I can't stand the whine of some Quantums though and was wondering
if there were any SCSI drives (only need 10 - 20 gb) that were quiet?

"soft power" control of IDE drives? - Is it possible to configure (with jumpers?) an IDE drive in such a way that it *doesn't* automatically spin up when power is applied to it, but it rather goes into "standby" mode and waits for a software command from the computer to fully tu...
