AFAIK, this only applies to drives that are removed from external enclosures and used internally (aka shucked). Apparently the external drive enclosure uses one of the power pins to indicate some kind of power-off condition to the drive, so these models of drive are built to power-off when that pin is high. But most standard power supplies / SATA connectors keep that pin high all the time, making it so the drives won't spin up without taping over that pin.
I very much doubt any of that applies to the Seagate drives being discussed here, though.

The drive noise is actually a bonus for me, especially since hearing it can tell me of the drive's health, e.g. the dreaded clicks of death.
Also I can buy recertified by Seagate with a 2 year warranty , for 164 no tax
If you live outside of florida there is no tax.

A seller was doing this as well for an E-bike i just bought in washington state.
It still is possible if you know the right websites
Give them a call tomorrow they will explain everything to you how warranty works. They are reputable. I am buying 20-30 qty , so I can get 5 bucks off ea drive either 14 or 16tTB X16 from them here soon. Building a true nas server for my gaming rig over 10GB Lan in a 24 bay supermicro case.
Will be using 2 disk parity for 2 different pools. I should get around 1000-1500MB/s. Would like to get 192TB or 176.4 TiB reported in Windows 11
may opt for 14TB X18 because those are better than the X16s and should see a performance difference in raid
