Hello,
I do not understand. The 12 TB and 14 TB are 7200 rpm, the 6 TB is 5400 rpm. Doesn’t the noise level depend on the rpm?
According to the WD documentation:
12 TB (WD120EFBX) or 14 TB
Iddle: 20 dB SeeK: 29 dB
6 TB (WD60EFZX)
Iddle: 25 dB SeeK: 30 dB
So far, I didn’t want to buy a 2 bay, 2 x 12 TB HDD because I thought it would be noisier than a 4 bay, 4 x 6 TB HDD.
What is the truth?
