The more I look at the one's without the circular ring, the more odd these look to me like a slab. I wonder why Seagate had so many different top cover designs on different Medalist drives. At least it makes them pretty unique to some.
@@windisk1112 Neat. That is better than what Fujitsu did with their IDE drives, which is make them all look like each other at least on the outside haha.

Not sure. Maybe they were testing ways to reduce the noise or just giving them a fresh look? Could've also been a OEM request...
