After reading a lot of very contradictory posts about which drives are loud and which are quiet I've come to the conclusion that people mean different things when that complain about noise.

I'm only concerned about the sound of the actuator moving not sound the drive spinning.

So for those who have experience with more than a handful of drives, please chime in on, which are the best refurbished 16TB drives to get?

Use case: plex server 10 feet from by bed (no I can't put it in another room).
