Hi,

I've recently bought a new drive (IronWolf 8TB) and copied all my data from old drive at once.

Now I'm in the process of reading this data back and checking md5 and this drive is making hell of a head noise! Shouldn't it just read the data in the linear fashion with not so much head skips? Is this btrfs fault? Or is it perfectly normal?
