[QUOTE="hudson, post: 395271, member: 30705"] After spending a few weeks with the mac, I can say that although perfect in almost every way, the experience is tainted by the incessant breathy hum from either the fan or disk. I'd describe it as a mite quieter than a SFF system I built last year, except that the noise comes from a worse place; right in front of my face. I don't know, maybe I am super sensitive (I doubt it), or I use it in a quieter environment than most. Just I'm working on the theory that the 750gb drive is just a less quiet model than the standard 250 or 500gb, but I've not yet found anyone with a similar set up. Does anyone know how to query the make and model of the hard drive used in an imac system? [/QUOTE]
