That's what I figured - thanks for the clarification.

I made sure I had drives that were on the tested/approved list before ordering the Qx2 - everything has been working like a charm since February and this new noise reared its ugly head about a week ago.
I think I'll try to take a short video this evening - that might go a long way toward troubleshooting this issue. Is there anything specific I can capture that may help shed some light on this?
Thanks again!
