It's oh so quiet...

Mine's used mainly for recording and streaming TV onto the LAN. How much of the stuff that gets recorded ever gets watched is another matter (in truth, most of it doesn't). Think I set the recorder for somewhere around 200GB over Christmas and haven't watched any of it yet.

That DVD drive comes highly recommended by me. I have two of 'em - the SATA one in my server and the IDE one in the new HT/HCPC. The IDE one is beige but it's under a flap so doesn't matter. Oh, and I can hear it running but then compared to my old case the cooling in the new one is rather good and rather quiet.
