In the case the sounds are amplified. The hdd is aggressive when moving the needle so you hear loud ticking(don't know how to say it) every now and then.
I searched online and it seems like the whole internet says that WD Blacks are noisy.
What I did was that I placed the HDD at the bottom of the case and held it in place with double sided thick foamy tape. This trick highly minimized the sounds.
Advice me if I should do something else
Thank you
Great DIY.. i think this is the best option for now :) congratz on the the build again
