Okay. So, i have a WD Blue hard drive. It's a good drive. Fast, silent seeks, and runs really cool (like 3 C above ambient). Here's the problem: The rotation whine is KILLING ME!! It's like that extremely high pitched whine that some CRT monitors make, all tvs make, and even some LCDs make. Most people can't hear it. I can.
I already have the drive set to turn off after 10 minutes, but for one reason or another, i always have to pull something off the drive, so it never turns off... are there any tricks to muffle the whine?
EDIt: Or Windows decides it wants to read 2K of data off the drive out of the blue...
