Reduce Hard Drive Vibration

[Rowan88]

Hi,

Sometimes I get a really annoying vibration sound coming from the side of my desktop case. If I press on the case it goes away which is telling me its the vibrations from the hard drive.

Is there anything I can do to reduce the vibrations from the hard drive?

Thanks

Will give that a go once I get some elastic thread.

Other idea I had was since the hard drive just sits in the plastic slots I could stick some foam or something in the sides between the hard drive and the plastic slots, hopefully that would help.

Thanks again for the reply.

I was clearing out some of the boxes and never realized that the ThermalTake A31 Chaser came with an attachment that meant instead of putting my hard drive in the slots along the side there was a thing that let me install it to where my DVD drive is.

The attachment also had rubber washers around the screw holes so I installed it there and its nice and quiet now

Maybe I should start reading instructions from now on lol
