SKY Q box model that isn't noisy?

[Ben174]

I have recently tried a couple of 2TB UHD Sky Q boxes (the one with silver trim and an external power brick) and both have a ticking hard drive noise when in use. Fairly low level but annoying. Is there a model of Sky Q box that is basically silent?

Hi @Ben174 

Only the Q minis boxes (used for Multiroom) as they have no hard drive.

My 1TB UHD (32B206) is silent apart from for a while in the early hours when it goes to low power mode/updates
