Sponges, mate.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

Well it kinda drives me crazy and my plan was to RMA it.. In my opinion a drive shouldn't sound that way :P

  

Ah, ok. My ST1000DM003 doesn't make that sound, but you're probably fine.

Would this work?

Shouldn't be necessary.. Imo this isn't your usual drive noise..

I have one of those and it's quiet and cool. I don't think that that is "usual" at all! Back up and RMA it.
