I bought wd red pros since people said they were quiet. I think they were comparing them to these type of enterprise drives because they are absolutely not quiet when seeking. I wouldn't mind drives like this if they were in a closet or away from me but my nas is in my office/guest bedroom. I've since replaced the pros with red plus and they are MUCH quieter.

They're also slower.
Doesn't bother me much since I'm only using it for media.
