I saw this on the web and was taken aback:
"...the mobile HDDs also demonstrate reduced acoustic noise and are scheduled to ship next quarter, the spokesperson said." (emphasis added)
I guess it's acoustic as opposed to digital noise. It just seemed weird. It's another retronym thanks to the digital age.
