Curious if anyone went from Red Plus to Red Pros and noticed a significant noise jump. I'm currently using 2x8TB Red Plus and considering the 22TB Pros.

I've read the Pros are much louder due to spin rate. I know helium is a factor, too. The numbers below don't seem all that crazy so I'm wondering how bad it actually gets.

WD Red Plus 8TB: 30 dB (seek) / 27 dB (idle average)

WD Red Pro 22TB: 32 dB (seek) / 20 dB (idle average)
