I just finished the process of adding 8 new Seagate Exos 20TB drives to my TrueNAS core system. This question has been asked a lot and it’s known seagate drives are loader then most durring operation. Though i could not find anything related to a consistent “shudder” through all my new Exos drives. I have attached a audio clip in the link below. Have any of you come across this specific sound before.

The drives are in a Fractal Design 7 XL case with rubber bumpers in all trays. The case hold 9 WD Red’s 12TB, and 8 Segate Exos 20TB. All 17 drives are connected to a SAS 9305-24i in IT mode. Running TrueNAS Core 13.0-U5.3

I know this is way late but could it be a power supply issue? Did you ever figure it?
