How do i fix my vibrating hdd sound?

aren332 · March 4

I have a western digital green 4tb almost new hard drive, and it vibrates pretty annoyingly in my case (corsair 3000d) It doesnt always vibrate, but it is pretty annoying sometimes. It is screwed into the plastic thingy that goes into the hard drive bay

Add rubber washers between the case and the hdd. Else well thats just harddrives

On pretty much all my cases I use double-sided tape (the foam kind) on the hard drive caddies, between the caddies and the case. Only peel the side to stick the tape to the caddy. The foam will help make the caddy fit a bit tighter in the case, and dappen the vibrations. It tends to take out the rattles. Occasionally I have to double stack the foam tape, but this has always cured my noises.

I use this same method to cure vibrating panels as well.
