It would be a problem.  Although I have a PC, it uses EIDE drives so I
wouldn't be able to install the SATA drive without hassle.  Pity I
rather liked the look of the Seagate, not only was it cheap but they
have a reputation for being quiet.  Interestingly the model that is
going cheap is not listed on the Seagate website, although there are
similar model numbers.    Perhaps best avoided.  Ah well....

cheers,
