Question My WD 4 TB HDD makes clicking noise only on Android box

[arty103]

My WD 4 TB HDD makes clicking noise only on Android box. It makes no noise when plugged into my LG smart TV nor does it when it's plugged into my computer, just on the Android box. I thought the box wasn't outputting enough power so I have bought numerous different cables and still the same. Again to specify... The noise only happens when it's plugged into the Android box. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

What if you eject the HDD from android box?
Is it readable/Working fine on android with clicking noise?

Oh and is the HDD powered from usb port of the Android box?

Yes the hard drive works perfectly in every other way possible. I even ran a drive test ( extended) and all came back good. It only acts up plugged in to the Bqeel Y2 Android box

Oh the HDD drive is 100% USB powered. I even opened it up and it was a straight up usb3 port sodered into the drive, no sata
