Honestly I'd say you're going to struggle to find any really quiet drive these days... although some in the past did have the ability to change settings in the firmware but no idea if that's still a thing.

As above WD black is not a quiet drive, same would apply for enterprise class drives (seagate exos, WD gold etc)

Are you ok with SMR (aka shingled) or do you need CMR drives because it all makes a difference. Most consumer drives are SMR, nas focused drives can go both ways and enterprise is generally CMR.
