Obsidian 800D vibrating

Hello. I bought the case 2 weeks ago(and believe me, we pay lots more from everything in Greece!!!)and I'm loving it. The thing is that it often vibrates (and produces vibrating sound) because of the hard disk drives. Except my ssd I use another 3 (2TB WD and two seagate 1TB and 500GB). Most of the vibration is generated by the WD as I understood through testing. I installed it at the bottom bay but nothing changed. The case can only stand to my left not even half a meter away, and it can become veeeeery annoying

I've read one similar question somewhere in the forum but no answer was given, no ideas or solution what-so-ever.

Are you sure its your hard drive vibrating thats making the noise and not a fan. I have a 800D as well and the bottom 140 fan can cause issues with vibration. This is due from 2 things, air turbulence and the lack of a silicone mount. Thus, if you replaced the stock fan in your case that could be the issue. I would disconnect all of your fans in the case and boot it up for a second in to the bios and see if it still makes noise. Otherwise if your hard drive is making that much noise, I'd suspect that a drive is begging to fail.
