a few years ago, Maxtor has "Acoustic Managemnet" and provide a tool to change the setting.

The tool is now gone. Do they still do the same with the new Maxline SATA drives?

Thanks!
 
cheerful,

I doubt that Maxtor's "Acoustic Management" tool applies to newer SATA drives, but there's one way to find out.

Agreeing to the EULA at this page leads to a download of setacm.exe, which appears to be the actual tool.

Good luck.
