I am pleased you have had a bit of success finding this. However, it leaves me far from happy. I have to confess this is exactly want I didn't want to hear; that the unit may have a problem. Although since the installation of my second drive it has been worse, I have had this "Crackle/Connector" thing for the better part of 9 months, on and off.

There was always a noticeable number of people complaining about noise/pickup/crackle in the early days. They went to great lengths to cut this down (even irrational lengths, to my mind) butnever managed to eliminate it. Is this the possible source of this problem?
