Hard drive noise in desktop
Is it common for you to be able to hear the hard drive a little bit in an AIO?
My dad has an AIO also but you can't hear the hard drive at all in it. Only if you're really close to it. I noticed that the hard drive is on the right side, right under the optic drive. The hard drive isn't covered. It's in the open. I can see my hard drive due to there being something that looks like a vent. I think it's just for decoration though. I noticed that when I use laptops, they have super quiet hard drive. I used to have a desktop and I don't remember noise coming from; but the computer wasn't right by me all the time. Is it just because desktop hdd's are louder than laptop hdd's? OR just because there's an unnecessary vent on the side?
