There's a whole bunch of different model/part numbers, i'm just wondering what the difference is between them. Is there a way to tell how "new" each model is? Are there any differences in performance/features?

Here's a thread with serverpartdeals saying there's no real difference, but that seems to be with the part number?

WUH721818ALE6L4, WUH721818ALE604, WUH721818ALE6L1, 3 different drives?

What one should I buy? It will be going in a synology NAS and hopefully not be too loud, or be better suited to a climate/humidity controlled (my ambient temps here are 70-75f) environment.
