Habe zu den Gründen nur Spekulationen auf unterschiedlichen Seiten (ging wohl vor ungefähr 3 Monaten damit los) bisher gelesen, angeblich soll auf Reddit jemand behauptet haben das es retournierte Evaluierungssamples seien. Aber habe keine echte Quelle dafür gefunden. Wenn man die Dinger bei Seagate direkt kauft gibts auch nur 6 Monate Garantie. Mir ist das zu heiß. Das mit Mindfactory war mir gar nicht bekannt. Die Kunden-Accounts wurden wohl ohne Rundschreiben einfach gelöscht.

Guten Abend, Bin immer mal wieder beim Schnäppchen-Shop von Mindfactory und halte Ausschau nach 18TB X20 (waren vor ein paar Monaten sehr günstig und sind von der Lautstärke her top), und da sah ich heute folgendes: 28TB: 10,32€/TB 24TB: 12,04€/TB Ergibt für mich auch auf dem 2. Blick keinen Sinn. Datenblatt zu der Modellnummer ist bis auf die Kapazität identisch. Weiß da zufällig jemand was? Nach kurzer Recherche konnte ich bisher nichts spezielles finden was den Unterschied erklären könnte. Wäre die 24TB eine Exos hätte man es sich ja noch erklären können, aber sind ja beide von der NM00C Reihe.

An gleicher Stelle wie bei DataCollector im Post vor mir, diese Runde für 11,06€/TB

Fridge is inaudible at night from bedroom. I haven't thought about using similar sounds for references. That's pretty good idea. I'll try to emulate the clacking-sound by tapping on something, while a second person listens to it at night. The actual volume will be a fair bit of guessing, but I'll aim for twice as loud as an old 1TB hard drive I have that I can plug into a power connector in the kitchen. Maybe record and amplify it even. Thank you.

Good Afternoon, Sorry if this is a repeat, but I used the search function for "HDD" and "noise" both having to be included in "everywhere" and did not find a matching thread. I went back to the start of 2023 in the search results. I did some searches outside the forum, but beyond close up videos of open cases recording HDD noises it wasn't very successful either, with comments claiming them to be almost silent or very loud. The situation I want to avoid is being woken up, or being kept awake, by someone accessing the server remotely (spinning up + reading operations), when everything is silent at night. Outlining my living conditions below, I want to know whether that is possible with those kinds of HDDs or if I need to make a ton of compromises and go with SSDs instead to protect my sleep. Looking at what I own now and how data has been growing, it would result in me owning 4 Exos/Ultrastars in the next 5 years at 18-22TB per drive in an unRaid-Array, one being a parity drive. I have no experience with these drives, much less in a home environment. Living in an 2room+kitchen apartment (with bad soundproofing between rooms) my options on where to put the server is pretty much limited to the kitchen, which is located next to the bedroom. Distance from the position of the server to somewhere it would bother a person's ear would be around 6 meters, not in a straight line. I have not settled on a case yet, so if a silent focused case can do the trick on those kind of HDD-noises, even if it includes some additional tinkering, I am open for recommendations that have worked for you. Please share your experiences.
