Sorry I'm mistaken, the noise comes from one of my 'WD My book' external HDD which seems to always be active, sounds like a fan that's always active.
Curious question, where do you guys stock all your media data? I keep it on a 4TB, and 3TB external wd my books connected to the NUC by USB 3.0. I can transfer files to them at a rate of about 11mb/s from my main computer through network sharing. I went with this setup because I always thought a drive connected directly through USB 3.0 would be more reliable than network streaming. I'm quite a noob in terms of RAID/NAS setups, so I'm curious to hear how you guys manage your data.
