Seagate ST31000340AS drives making click-clunk sounds
I upgraded my ReadyNAS Duo from a pair of Seagate 500GB drives to a pair of 1 TB Seagate ST31000340AS drives (listed as compatible drives on the Hardware Compatibility List: http://www.readynas.com/?p...
Hi,
In addition to the clunking noises, is anyone else receiving a high-pitched whine from their seagate drive(s). I have found that ever since I first turned on my ReadyNAS duo, I have been receiving this sound (usually within 20 minutes after power-up). I've managed to find one or two isolated posts on other forums that describe the same sound, however their has not been any cause and/or solution to this issue.
As with the other posts in this topic, FrontView reports no problems with the one and only (seagate) drive that I have installed, neither are there any SMART or temperature related issues. Aside from the strange noises my drive seems to be operating reasonably well.
