minus-square@JarixlinkEnglish4•edit-23 hours agoAre they any louder than any HDD from the last 30 years? If so, im actually curious why that is Edit: fixed to say HDD not SSD
minus-square@CocodapuflinkEnglish6•2 hours agoWell I have no experience with these particular drives, but they do seem to have 11 platters. Which is beyond insane as far as I’m concerned. More platters means more moving parts, more friction more noise (all other things being equal).
