Has anyone found a resolution to this issue? My disks are now constantly making this loud seeking noise that is both concerning and annoying as this device is in my office.

I have a mix of Seagate and Western Digital drives:

Ch 1 : Seagate ST3500320NS [465 GB] 461 GB allocated
Ch 2 : Seagate ST3500320NS [465 GB] 461 GB allocated
Ch 3 : Seagate ST3500320NS [465 GB] 461 GB allocated
Ch 4 : WDC WD2002FYPS-01U1B0 [1863 GB] 1858 GB allocated
Ch 5 : WDC WD2002FYPS-01U1B0 [1863 GB] 1858 GB allocated

Thanks in advance.
