300-500GB, SATAII
Maxtor
Seagate - I own the 320GB and the seeks are LOUD.
Western Digital, Hitachi, and Samsung are not often in Hot Deals. I hear (no pun intended) WD is among the quietest.
I've owned some 160GB WD and Maxtor IDE drives that were loud, not sure how it translates into SATA drives. I had a 160GB Hitachi drive that was silent too.
