I'm using a LaCie 100 mb disk in a MacII. It is very, very, quiet. I
truely can't hear it above the sound of the Mac's fan. It has a 28ms
seek time, which makes it a little bit slower than the CMS pro80 (18ms) in
our other Mac II. The LaCie costs $1,000. 
 By the way, in defense of CMS, the 80 mb disk is made by quantum
and hasn't given me any trouble. This poor drive has been used for
more than a year in a Lino service bureau.
