New 7k1000.b Hard Drive Vibrating Like Crazy

[Bryf50]

I just got a Hitachi 7k1000.b from newegg and dropped it into my computer. This thing is vibrating more then any other hard drive I've ever seen, but it works completely fine. It's vibrating so much that its shaking the desk that the computer sits on. Does anyone with this hard drive notice anything similar or does mine have a defect. It's working fine but this vibration is way over the top. I'm still unsure if i should rma it for a replacement or a refund.

That much vibration isn't normal.

I'd be sending that drive back for replacement.

Agreed.

I have 3 7k1000.b's spread across 2 machines and they don't vibrate at all.
