Hard Drive noise on Time Machine
Hello, I have been using a WD Green 2TB on my readynas 102, and I use Time machine. But when Time machine is backing up, drive makes lots of noise. I just changed the hard drive for a brand new WD...
My WD Red drives in my 104 sounds just like that when Time Machine is doing its thing.
I think it's because TM reads/writes loads of different files located all over the platters causing the drive heads to move around more than usual.
