I found this its the cheapest 10TB Exos drive on Newegg and looking to buy 4 of them. I will be putting them in my NAS that I use for my media library and pc backups. The price I’m posting this is $130, I’m also looking similar Exos drives that are $250 is there a difference? Should I shell up for the more expensive drives?

    I got a set off ebay, Jesus christ they’re loud. I ended up returning them cause I could hear the grinding through my whole house

      I have 3 14tb exos drives. I have them in a Roswell 4u hotseap chassis. Running unraid.

      It’s nearly inaudible over the very reasonable case fans. No grinding noises. I can hear the heads moving a bit but it’s quite subtle. Not sure why people have such different experiences with these
