Classic Question: Which Hard Drive ? Options

[camarao]

Hi

I have a Powerbook with an external Lacie firewire hard drive which is kind of noisy. I would like to buy another firewire external hard drive for working everyday with the Powerbook and use the Lacie for backups only. I would need a silent one, with more or less 200gb and it has to be tough since I will take it in my live concerts and dj-sets.
I thought about the Carillon Ad1+ but I´m not sure...Are there any alternatives ?

Thank you,

Alex

Just in case, the enclosure must:

- be sturdy
- have an activity LED
- no fan but well ventilated
- be in metal
- check for Oxford chipset (usually the other chipset, some are really good too, are not advertised)

Note you can connect a 800 in 400 and the reverse (but you'll have only the lowest speed) with the proper cable so maybe a 800/400/usb may not be necessary depending your set up (and save € along the way)
