I recently bough this NAS after seeing reviews it is dead silent, but would have to disagree. I run the NAS over my desk, just by the monitor. I already configured the fans to run in quiet mode, but they are still noisy. I'm sure there's no defect, it's just that they are not as silent as I thought. I wonder if anyone knows any hack to reduce fan noise in this unit, like having them replaced by some super efficient model, or anything like that.
For comparison, my 4-drive QNAP TS-423Be, which I have been using for 4 years, is indeed dead silent. It runs on a single 12mm fan that makes no noise. But this Synology runs on 2 9mm drives that are noisy in quiet environments.
Thank you.
