Need Information about Power Usage from a HD

[Darkness Productions]

I'm looking to get some Maxtor 250GB 16MB cache drives (6B250R0 for the SKU). I need to know first how much power these things use, and if possible, noise and heat information as well.

I've looked on Maxtor's site, to no avail, and have looked around on review sites, also with no luck.

Has anyone got one of these drives, and could give me some information about it?

7B250R0 (SKU)
Voltage Requirements: 5V+/-5% 12V+/-10%
Idle Mode (W) 7.6

I would think it's about the same...

Look here before buying any HDD ... ;)

i have about 6 of this maxtor series drive. never had any trouble with them, cooling fans put out more noise, some of them are only 26db. Some of them were running non-BOINC CPDN, so lots and lots of disk I/O for several months. very happy with them, early maxtors were noisy crap
