It is time to buy a backup drive for the new computer. I currently have a WDC MyBook Pro Edition II which is a reasonably priced (< US$400) and very fast. The only problem is when it warms up the fan sounds like a jet engine rev'ing up for a takeoff. What I'd like to do is use that drive for backup and replace it with a quiet drive for everyday use. Problem is, how do I find one? There are several on the market for < US$400, but I have no way to compare speed, noise levels, etc. Has anyone seen an up-to-date comparison of 1TB drives currently available?
