Hello ! I have a custom build NAS currently using 4x6TB hard drives in RAID10. I am looking for a capacity upgrade. My main focus are low power consumption and low noise (the NAS is in my living room / home office).

I can’t seem to find any 5400RPM HDD over 8TB in capacity anywhere. Is there any model with 10, 12 or more TB in existence ? If not, what could be the reasons ?

    Are you running these in a NAS or PC case? I have a Fractal Design R6 case and it is nearly silent even with 9 HDDs running inside of it because they added a bunch of soundproofing inside.
