Computer chewing through hardrives

[disgruntled platypus]

Hello I have been having problems with hard drives that keep failing on my computer prematurely. Last year I had a drive (seagate baracuda compute) start making a ticking noise every 15-30 seconds kind of like the sounds like the arm touching the spinning disk and deflecting off. Sure enough when I did a scan I found corrupt sectors, so I bought a new drive(western digital), RMA'ed the seagate and started using the Western digital. Within a few weeks I noticed the WD doing the same behavior and corrupt sectors. I have been juggling RMA's drives ever since and have killed 4 in the past year all having the same issue soo after install. Could this be a power supply problem or motherboard? The drives are held in an enclosure in the case on rubber pads. Also all my ssd (m.2 and sata) are fine and no issue, I have swapped the sata cable as well as switch power connector used on the hard drives.

 

I don't know what to do other just buy ssd's since they seem to survive whatever is happening.

I would possibly point to a power supply problem.

I'd go PSU. Had a PSU that killed a 1tb Toshiba from click of death and Samsung Spinpoint from click of death.
