Turns out my WD Black's vibration caused the whole case frame to vibrate along, thus, creating a very annoying hard disk activity noise. Since the hard drive cage was connected to the frame, it was the likely caused of the extreme noise. Seems like Corsair skipped on quality here by putting a plastic cage connected to the case frame. I solved this noise problem by removing the cage altogether and buying a mounting kit as a platform for the hard drive to rest. Blah. I have yet to think of a solution that doesnt look.
Other than that, I returned my R9 290 this week as I encountered the same big cursor bug I had with the HD 7790.
I have used this cage with good success: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/1..._CFP53B.html?gclid=CM-XrvajgLsCFclQOgodH3UA1g
That might be a solution for you.
