- PascLeRasc 9y agoI was going to say the opposite - recently deployed 12x 10TB Ironwolf Pros and I can't hear them above the Synology's fans.
- CSDude 9y agoI bought WD Red and can hear Synology and it both :(
- PascLeRasc 9y agoMy Synology is rather loud I'll admit, but at least it's two bigger 120mm fans so the sound isn't too high-pitched. Have you tried turning the profile to quiet on DSM?
- zlynx 9y agoI've got six WD Reds and can't hear them at all. I put them in a Fractal Design R5 silent case. :) It's a home NAS but I figure I can shut it down to replace a drive. No need for drive bays, neat as they are.
- stordoff 9y agoRunning WD Reds in my Synology (DS415play/4TB drives), and I can tell when the nightly backup starts because I hear the drives pick up. Granted I'm only a couple of feet away, and only notice when the room is otherwise silent, but definitely audible.
