Hi -- would you be able to compare these specific drives for noise?
I know the Pro-series are generally louder than the Plus-series and the data sheets include the acoustics dB, but I was wondering if there are some other intangibles (e.g., the drive heads spin up/down or clicking) that are worse on the Pro 22TB but might not show up on the spec sheet?
I currently have the Plus 6TB in a storage closet and can barely hear the noise so I'm concerned going to the Pro series might be too loud.
