Hello to everyone, so i cleaned my pc, changed the psu connections to make it more comfortable, I dismounted the HDD's put them in a horizontal surface i did everything nice, and thats it, when i mounted everything and power up my PC, the hard drives start making noices when they are on LOAD or im searching for a file. its not a beeping sound or a hard scratch sound, its just like the sound that "maybe" its normal but now its LOUDER! and i cant stand it. i didnt smashed them or something like that. it just happened and its both HDD's i have. what happened?

I have check the SMART and did a error scan with HD TUNE PRO , DataLifeguard diagnostigs of WESTERN DIGITAL, the seagate tools, and every scan its ok, every test is pass. So i dont know what happened there. can you explain it to me what happened.

You said you removed them, so one would assume they are not fitted in the same places they were, they screws are not tight enough or too tight. Either way to stop this noise the screws work a treat.
