Heh, you probably have a DM +9 too.
Try a D740x with the normal ball bearings on for size with AAM turned off

I got a 20g about 3 years ago. When I first turn it on it sound like it was broke. Ohh well I can deal with the nose as long as it works. In fact it still works to this day.

i have a diamond max 9 40gb 7200rpm drive.

good drive, nice n fast, but it has a high pitched noise (a slight whine), which gets into your head while you try to sleep. Apart from that, i cant hear it.

I think its a FDB drive actually...
