I've been planning on including 1 or 2 74gb raptors in my future rig. I'm also planning on making the rig on the quiet side, probably just two 120mm fans, water cooling on the cpu, and possible a side intake 80mm fan.
I really like the performance of a raptor, but how noisy are they? My case (ThermalTake Tsunami) has a special mounting system to reduce drive noise, and I'm sure there are similar aftermarket solutions. What are your experiences their noise level?
Also, a longshot here, anyone know if anything is poised to knock these babies off the top of the hill? They've been king for what seems like WAY too long in this industry.
