Vibration noise from HDD cage on 350d

Hello,

 

I purchased the Corsair 350d yesterday and very happy with it, But today i noticed there is a loud vibration noise... So i opened up the case to find out what was causing it, i stopped all the fans etc and the vibration noise was coming from the hard drive cage.

 

Has anyone else encountered this problem with this case? If so any tips to stop it?

 

Thank you!

I've been having this problem for months and its finally got too annoying so i decided to see if anyone else has had a similar problem. there has also been similar posts made by users who own a 350d.

When I checked the screws on the back of the cage, I found that one of them was loose. i tried to tighten it up, but it kept turning, so I removed it and tried to find a slightly larger one. Then I noticed that it was no longer vibrating, so I left it out and so far, no vibration.

You could try putting thin rubber washers between the mating faces where the screws fit and then screwing them down again. You could also check if one of your HDD's is causing the vibration, although it's more likely that the vibration is coming from elsewhere.

I have the Cosair Apollo White from Digital Storm. Since Day 1, the HDD cages have vibrated especially the one holding the HDDs. This is is unfortunate because it is truly a Desktop computer with the case about 18" from my ear. I also have problems with the left door vibrating causing me to have to open up the door to stop the vibrations. Is Cosair going to do anything about this? Does Corsair even acknowledge this problem? Does Cosair offer any solutions other than putting a brick on top of the HDD cage? I am not the only one who has this problem I see
