Is it normal for the hard disk to make a dull clicking noise and vibrate a little when booting up, or have I received a defective hard disk?

Is this the maximum capacity we can find 12T? Or larger capacities exist?

I have a *Synology DS418j* NAS and have 2 of the hard drives installed at 2x https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/seagate-ironwolf-10tb-35-festplatte-5961183 and since I installed the last one and my data is now on all 4ren it spacks around, I don't know why, can it be that the two hard drives are not compatible with my NAS ? or with the other two hard drives ? So it loads slowly, opens the folder slowly and before I could watch a movie over the NAS without any problems, now it hangs all the time and reloads, but when I go into the NAS settings it says "Ram 45% and CPU 14%" utilization in the resource monitor, can something be wrong ...?

Are these plates supplied with cable?

Does anyone know why the 12TB is cheaper than the 10TB?

Hello, I am interested in the Seagate IronWolf 12Tb hard drive (item number 11697489) for my Synology DS218 NAS. Could you confirm if this hard drive is compatible with this NAS model? Thank you in advance for your reply.

What reason does Galaxus actually give as to why these hard drives (and numerous other items in the shop) are offered so much cheaper on the .de site than on the .at or .ch? Or to put it another way: why are Austrian and Swiss customers charged so much more for 1:1 identical products?

I have ordered two 12TB hard drives, but I have not been able to get either of them to work. I have tested it in two different devices. The hard disks don't pip anything else. At first I thought that my power supply wasn't powerful enough. But I have an 850W power supply and even if only one hard drive is in it, it doesn't work.

The hard disks are not recognised at all by my mainboard. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I already have bad SMART values after two years. My Syno-NAS says I should replace the disk. Does the warranty apply?

The connector is different from the "normal" HDD, e.g. the 8TB Seagate or WD. Now it does not fit into the Synology NAS. have I missed a new interface here?

Good for Chia minning?

Hi all, my 12TB drive makes a jagged sound after a few seconds when booting up (power on, resume from standby etc). "clack-clack-clack-clack-clack* (five times). No noises are audible during operation/under load. Write/read values and speeds as expected. SMART/fsck are inconspicuous. The disk was filled to approx. 10% on a test basis, all files without checksum errors. The SATA data cable was replaced as a precaution, without effect. Is this "normal" or should I have the disk replaced?

Is this product ST12000VN0008 or ST12000VN0007 as shown in the picture?
