That's the issue with the two NAS's I have, they're fairly quiet once they're up and running but at boot they absolutely scream so I have to be careful where I put them so a power cycle doesn't wake the whole house. One has 4x 1TB drives and the other has 4x 1.5TB. They're worth a good chunk of money but I imagine they'd be a pain to sell, if I get the time I should probably set them up as RAID1 and store irreplaceable media on them.
