Hi, Just started using my new Pegasus3 R6 in RAID 5 with my new 2016 15" MacBook Pro. I'd like to know if it's normal for the drives to make so much noise? Simply put, the spinning drives sound like they're gurgling. It also does this sporadically while sitting idle. Is this normal? I realize that there are six spinning drives which would make some noise, but this seems to be excessive. Please let me know what your experiance is? Thanks, Ray
