Dear Community,
since a few days I have a WNAP SILENT NAS HS-453DX and 2x WD Red 10 TB, no Raid.
After a few Hours in Duty, one or both HDDs make a noise that doesn´t disappear…it is not a clicking, it sounds as if the head(s) move on and on, maybe in a change (?) between the two drives ….please take a look there . The NAS also doesn´t seem to be able to go/get the drives into sleep/idle mode.
The HDDs do the “beeping” sounds more regularly than in the links, and also without any tasks from the NAS.
I haven´t uploaded lots of Apps so I don´t think the HDDs are doing the noise because of heavy duties….it seems to me that they are doing it without any Duty…the NAS also is´t going in Sleep mode.
Is this a Software/NAS/HDD Problem???

These links are not from me(thanks to the uploaders), but these are exactly the sounds I hear.
I have bought this NAS and the HDDs für being silent, but this is not acceptable….
I have also opened a ticket here, but am in a hurry to being able to retrun the drives without any Problems…
Thanks for your help in Advance
Mark
