Noisey 2.5 HDD (210Mb)
« on: March 06, 2006, 12:32:07 AM »
Hey, got a bit of an issue with my HD that i installed. Works very nicely but seems to spin a bit louder then normal. I can put up with it but gets annoying. Is there any way of making it quieter. I thight about using a light dencity foam or somthing but can you think of better?
Regrds,
Chris
