Apologies in advance for what promises to be an agonisingly dull thread. I shall use short sentences to give it some bounce.

The 500gb disc in my vortexbox server is almost full. Time for an upgrade. Think I'll go for a 2TB. But which one!!? Caviar Green? Samsung F-something?

Function: music server, backup NAS storage.
Requirements: QUIET (my VB is in the much-used dining room in the east wing); energy efficient (it's on 24/7); Reliable; Odourless (this is an attempt at humour).

Any recommendations? Also where to buy? Amazon?
