mpMysTiC Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Hi. I´m very happy for my HP MS Gen 8. But where i live know, its standing behind our courch. That´s lead us to the problem. I can easyly hear the HDD´s are spinning, Zuum, Zuum, Zuum.. It´s not the fan! Can i fix this somehow? Does anyone have a solution ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oj88 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Get quieter drives? NAS drives in particular are inherently quiet. Or, check if parts are vibrating/resonating. Anything from a piece of folded paper or adhesive tape might help dampen the vibration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schoondoggy Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Do you have a cabinet you could put the server in? You would need to provide air flow, but that is about the only way to silence a server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpMysTiC Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 I found the problem. If i put a finger on the top of the cabinet, the humming is gone. So now my hdd dock is on the top of it for now, I will put some antivibrant rubber on the inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmwills Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Technically I think your issue is vibration, The rubber should help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
