Greetings,
Was thinking of purchasing a Seagate SATAII NCQ 320GB 7200RPM 16mb Cache and wanted to know if anyone had one of these and if they did have had any problems with them? |

Nope, not as yet
That said, if I was going to buy a 320 + size drive I'd also be installing it into a system that had fan cooled drive bays |

I've bought several of these drives recently for people I've been building computers for. No problems with any of them.

I didn't and it'll still work fine without the additional cooling but that said, it can't hurt to have it if you don't mind forking out the extra dosh.

I bought two of them last week and so far no problems. They are significantly cooler than the 160's they replaced.

I bought a 300 seagate hdd a while ago... it died within a week >:|
It is also way noiser than my WD 200 hdd. That's just my personal experience, its always different from person to person. |
