I'm really wanting to buy an IBM deskstar but should I go the 75gxp route or the 60gxp? I've been reading some bad press on the 75gxp, which could explain why they seem to be backordered in almost every computer shop.

Also on a side note has anyone ever used the Coolermaster 4002 hard drive cooler and if so how do you like it?

Thanks!
 
From what I've managed to gather, the 60GXP is slightly faster, quieter, cooler and cheaper. I'll be going for that one first myself. The one downside is, it is a new product and therefore fairly untested over time.

go for the 60... faster and quieter an odd combination i admit... being cheaper as well... very odd... hehe you cant lose...

you do not strengthen the weak by weakening the strong
 
>>being cheaper as wel... very odd... hehe

cool, quiet, fast, cheap, reliable.

The 60GXP is the newer model; go for it.
