Disturbing clicks on my new WD Black 2TB WD2003FZEX in idle mode. Is this normal? Terrible annoys me. Also increased vibration drive during operation, so that the entire chase shakes.

I change power supply and SATA cable and all it's same. Hard disk has passed all the tests, no fault and no bad sectors. Is heard even in another room, especially when the case is closed.

My computer:

Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3
Kingston Fury DD4 2666 Mhz 2X8 GB

Last night I tried the WD black on brother computer with i5 2400, LGA1155, some sheap chinese power supply. Has Win 10 and a Barracuda 1 TB as the primary disk.

HDD work perfect. Do not click, vibrate, and is little noisy of Barracuda.

But on my computer still click every 4-5 seconds. Clicking only in idle mode.

Now what is the reason for every 4-5 second clicking I do not know. Is my power supply or motherboard compatible? Maybe chipset on MB have an option for saving energy, accelerating HDD, or sistem? Maybe is problem I have primary ssd? Antivirus software or virus?
