The difference is ball bearing and Hydro Wave Bearing,this last one means
longer life time and even more silent in use.
I have a 24dB noise hsf but it's hardly noticable because my psu fans make
more noise.
The volcano described here is rated at 21dB which seems right since it runs
at 2500rpm,i had a fan spin this speed on a heatsink and it's very quiet.
So if it cools good,i would say it's a good buy.

What CPU cooler do you have ??

I have a Vantex AreoFlow its louder than the 5 case fans i have though
they are are 7 volts :)

I have a coolermaster silent,dont recall the modelnumber,it's aluminium with
a 70mm 3200rpm fan blowing to it.
It's 1.5 years old already but keeps my xp2400 between 40C and 50C.
I also have a TT volcano11,with adjustable 80mm fan mounted onto it.
Copper based,but i have to run the fan above 3000rpm to get the same temps i
have now.
So i only used it for a short time,i don't like the noise from it.
Running this volcano on 4800rpm cools it down to 30C but makes one hell of a
noise.
When your below 3000rpm noise is neglectable in most cases,also with the
volcano.
But then temps go higher,so this new type of fan on the silent boost has
spaces on the side and only runs at 2500rpm.
This combined with the fact they sell it as a xp3400 cooler makes it look
good in my eyes.

Take another look at the specs - The Hydro Wave bearing unit has an MTBF of
50.000 hours while the ball bearing unit is rated at 60,000 hours! So the
ball bearing fan will last longer?? It's probably a typo but I'll call
Thermaltake and find out. I'll have to wait about 3 hours until they open
up in California - I'll keep you all advised.

and how long is 50,000 hours ??

Ive yet to have a fan die on me :), got some old PSU fans in my system
now god knows how long they have been running for before i got them :)

The Hydrowave is supposed to be quieter as well.

Anyway,if it's shorter then the ball bearing type then this is something we
should know.
Nowadays the coolers will last you perhaps 10 years,modern cpu's are worked
on to operate cooler so chances are an amd xp cpu cooler will also
sufficiently cool new highspeed cpu's.How many hours are in a year?So leave
the comp on 24/7 and you want the fan to last forever...
