[QUOTE="Matt Deasay, post: 488437, member: 37806"] I have a late Fall 2006 iMac and I would say mine runs almost silent. That was one of the things I first noticed when I got my iMac. I did notice a change when I first installed Parallels and began running both Windows XP and Mac OS X at the same time. Whenever I would try to access a file or folder on XP, I could heard something on Windows XP, I could heard "the hard-drive is thinking" noises. As of right now, I do not really hear those noises anymore. Occassionally I'll hear sounds that louder than usually. But for the most part mine runs quietly. Hope this provides any insight. [/QUOTE]
