Does anyone know which brands have fluid bearings?

I'm interested in IDE 7200RPM drives.

They all do now, tho not all brands
have all the drives with fluid bearings.

I prefer Samsung P80 drives currently.

All have fluid bearings, all their drives have full 3 year warrantys
and the P80s are lovely quiet drives. So quiet that you have to
check by feeling them that the drive is spinning up when you
first install it with the covers still off the case.

Only real downside is that not everyone flogs them.
