QNAP TS-464 NAS - Noise Tests

[@tiller6750]

Your third note on the noise test segments is great!

[@VictorEdinovich]

Thanks! Super test! Make more such 'noise comparison' video, please :)

Brilliant video, as usual.

Why do the "Centre HDDs" make this scratching noise when they are active? My Seagate Ironwolf Pro 16TB do the same and it kills my nerves. :((

I have an old Qnap 6 bay nas. It has x2, 92mm fans in it. The noise is ridiculous from it. Yes it's old and yes it isn't how it was when it was brand new I'm sure BUT.....I made two mods to make it work much much better. I swapped out the 92mm cheap and terrible fans for some Noctua NF's and I also used my dremmel and removed some of the grill that obstructs the spinning fan blades as I felt it would increase the CF value. Would you please consider a video dedicated to this? Get something old....at least 5 years old and measure the noise using the original chassis fans....then swap the fans for a pair of Noctua or Be Quiet! fans and compare and contrast? The value for money is astonishingly good value. My NAS is orders of magnitude quieter now and I can not even hear it unless it's under load. Before, just on tick over, it was just too loud!

Hi Robbie, why my WD HDD purple 2TB on the TS 262c keeps generating noise when idled without any active usage of access, like ‘da da da da da’ … which is non stop. Any thing I can do to stop or reduce it? Pls help🙏🏼

I have 3 brand new 12TB Seagate wolf drives in the same NAS in the video and they are much nosier than the ones you used in the video

So basically the NAS itself is very quite, even when running standard HDDs. Datacenter HDDs are a big step up in noise. Is that true for all high capacity drives in your experience? Do you know any large (~20TB) HDDs that are on the quieter side?

Insightful video, couldn’t hear much sound difference between drives!? Please could you do a similar comparison for regular NAS tasks. I’m really looking to know if SSDs are worth using. Would be forever grateful 🙏

Please just focus on all NAS manufacures to make 5gbe or at least 10gbe the minimum. 1gbe or even 2.5gbe is like 10 year old tech... Who seriously give a shit about a noise test when the lame ass nas is running at 10 year old speeds.
