Hi,

I just installed a 500GB spinpoint drive in a Quiet Drive. The disk is really quiet except for the "seek" noise that i wanted to get rid of. After installation the noise from the head seeking can not be heard anymore but instead a very low frequency "humming" noise has occured. If i touch the Quiet Drive assembly I can feel a vibration. I guess somehow the drive is self oscilllating or something? I was quite carefull when installing and I am fairly certain I did install it correctly.. Any ideas ??
