    Hi again

    Samsung Spin Point are quite recommended, I put one in mine, which is fine. I also put a 2.5" Laptop drive with a 3.5 to 2.5 bracket kit from the (popular aution site) in a Starview PVR for a friend, this keeps the heat down as well as the noise and they still work fine for recording @4500 rpm.
