I have the Sabrent 10-bay enclosure and I couldn't be happier with it. It's high quality, solid, and all aluminum. It also uses a 10gbps USB 3.2 connection.

There are cheaper 8-bay enclosure options like Syba and Orico, and they would probably be just fine, but some of them use the slower USB 3.0 speed cables.

The enclosure itself isn't loud at all, it has two large fans that I've never been able to hear. It does a good job of masking noise from the hard drives, I don't usually hear the clicks and humming. However I think it also depends on the hard drives you use. I've noticed the faster 7200rpm enterprise grade drives are quite a bit louder than the slower 5400rpm Western Digital drives. The enterprise drives sometimes make thud noises that sound like car doors being slammed outside.
