Thanks for reaching out, and I'm glad to hear you're enjoying your QNAP TS-464! It's a powerful unit, but I understand your frustration with the constant noise.
It's normal for the NAS to be active, even when unplugged from the LAN. However, you can adjust the settings to reduce the activity. Try enabling the power-saving features in the QNAP settings. You can set the hard drives to enter standby mode after a period of inactivity, which should help minimize noise.
If you find the noise continues to be a problem, placing it in a cupboard or an isolated area can be a good solution, as long as there's enough ventilation to keep it cool.
