Hello,

it could be, that Sony PS4 doesen't support your drive.
Research, if you can put any drive, or you need to do some modifications.
What kind of drive was in the PS4 before you put ST2000LM003 in

Do you heard the sound?
Before it was Hitachi, but ps4 support 12mm hdd 2.5".
Hitachi was 7mm, this is 9.5mm.. i don't think it's a compatible problem

Other opinions?

Are you sure that sound is coming from the hard drive itself? Compatibility problems are common between hard drives and video game machines, it's not just that the drive meets physical requirements, sometimes is something as stupid as a matching file system, a matching serial number pattern, or an ATA password.

Hello kekko95,

to clarify, that problem is in hdd connect it to computer. If strange sound remain, then return it to shop to replace you with new one

[kekko95]

It doesent work on pc because it's formatted for another system operation (ps4)...

Perform a full surface scan on the drive, then post the SMART report.
