HDD Bay Vibration

[multitasker451]

I have noticed a considerable amount of noise coming from the HDD bay in my case caused by the vibration of the HDD.  Does anyone know of any solutions to this problem?  Any "around the house" solutions?

Make sure the hard drives are secure

Mount hard drives with rubber grommets

Mount cage with rubber grommets

 

imo the best solution is to mount them in 5.25" bays with elastic.

You can try to fit bit's of rubber/cardboard at the sides or underneath the actual hdd. Rubber washer's would most likely make the most sense and should absorb quite a lot of the noise generated.

Find some packaging foam or do what the other two solutions did. I hated this problem with my old desktop so I took about 15 rubber bands and wrapped them around the hard drive, then screwed it in nice and snug.
