The problem is a high pitch noise. I tried so far WD Gold 18 TB, Toshiba X300PRO 16TB - the same.
Currently got HGST DeskStar NAS 4TB 7200 RPM 128MB Cache in rubber mounted case - the noise is barely noticeable, so the vibration. New HDDs will go the same way. The PC case is on the table 1m away. Purpose: a dump for photo/video/backups.
Now checking the datasheets:
IronWolf Pro series is 20/26 for 22-12TB.
WD Red Plus is only 20/29 for 12-14TB.
Wed Red Pro is 20/32 for 20-22TB.
WD Gold the is 20/32 for 20-24TB.
Currently considering either WD Red Plus or IronWolf Pro.
Again, not quite concerned about clicky-scratchy noise and too much of vibration - rubber isolated case for HDD will do. The huge problem for me is a constant high-pitch noise from what I tried already. It hurts my ears literally and is unbearable.
