Well it turns out the #Seagate #Exos X14 12TB manufacturer recertified drive I bought was on its way to dying as it won't mount anymore and makes clicking noises after it spins up. It's fine, though, I have a warranty and it was just for testing. The S.M.A.R.T. values were pretty bad for at least one of the items despite saying it's fine so I'm not surprised.

Someone should invent a noisemaker that makes random #HardDrive sounds and what noise it makes is configurable based on a selected drive brand and type, so you could have it be #Seagate #Exos, WD Blue, #Maxtor, small laptop ones, 5.25-inch and larger ones, iPod- and Zune-sized ones, etc. This could be run on its own or connected to the hard drive indicator LED pins to make noise when a drive is accessed.
