Hello, I have been using WD Red Pro NAS 2x 16TB Hard Drive with TrueNas for a while, but since I recently moved the system to a family room, the sound from HDD (even during idle times) has been very annoying. I have recorded the sound and attached it here for your review. I would like to know if this is normal or expected. If so, I will have to place this in a different room. I hear this noise repeatedly every 10 seconds, regardless of whether the device is idle or performing some transfers.
The drives stop making constant clicking noise when I shutdown the TrueNas. Running it on a Proxmox with HBA passthrough. I don't have any Cloud syncs or SMART tasks set up. The only task I have enabled on TrueNas that runs weekly is scrubbing, with a threshold of 35 days. Further, the drives are well-secured with a dampener or anti-vibration screws. I did some research and couldn't conclude if this is happening due to some settings within TrueNAs that I am not aware of or expected operational sound / HDD issue. Please let me know if you need any additional information. I would very much appreciate your help.
