i recently bought a 8tb hdd (western digital gold 8tb) and after i realize that it made what seemed to be unusual noises i got a replacement of the same model thinking that the one i had was defective but when the new one arrived it made the exact same noises.I then bought a different model (western digital red pro) 8tb again and its making the exact same noises again, do 8tb usually make irregular clicking/grinding noises or is there a problem with another part of my pc?
