Sounds like you need a new hard drive!!! All mine are silent.
Tapping holes is not to hard. Just need a tap and a tap wrentch.
Just use silicone to seal the barbs.
I used metal epoxy to put the barbs on my heater core because it could not be threaded and so far it works great. Probably stay there forever.
Why not use a aluminum plate and mill it into a large heat sink. Water cooling is way extream, especially cooling just one side. Might make the the plates screw up if the top is cooler than the bottom?
