I think maybe and yes are better answers.

squealing can be down to pad material. Same as on car disk brakes. Harder compounds tend to be more noisy.

Squealing is more often down to set up.Check your rotors are aligned and also that your pads aren`t contaminated.
Hayes Stokers are normally pretty damned affective brakes,and the Hopes whilst bling won`t perform that much better.

How?
it answers the question.
\If the OP wants to know how to sort out the squeeling brakes they should asks.
Or look in the FAQs or the BR workshops as this is covered quite well in those two places.
