I’ve got a strange sound from a brand new 4TB Red Disk in my HP Microserver Gen 8.
Is it something I must be worried about ?

here is a link to a video of it: 4TB Red Sound

How can I Check if the disk’s integrity is good ? (not much knowledges about HDD)

Thanks.

Hi there.

I had the same story with my WD Red 2Tb. I’ve contacted with WD support via phone and they said that’s ok sound. But under load my HDD made crackling sound which could be heard even at another room. So I went to retailer and made a refund. Unfortunately, currently HDD not only outdated technology but also companies invest more to SSD than to HDD so the quality of HDD manufacturing falls from year to year. So it was my last HDD and I just bought 2TB SSD.
