Technology - Shuttle PC - choosing disk

from choosing memory

Issues

As with the other components my main priorities are low noise and reliability. I vaguely remember seeing something about Seagate being better in this respect but I could be wrong.

I decided to get a single medium capacity disk, It would be good to have a RAID array but at this stage I wanted to keep it simple. In the future it may be a better option to get a second system and connect them with gigabyte LAN?
I chose

160 GB Seagate Barracuda SATA 7200rpm 8MB cache HDD with NCQ
