I have this incredibly loud noise coming from my Y-axis. It doesn't affect print quality, but it is horrible to listen to and really loud. It is present when the Y-axis moves at ~100mm/s and gets worse/louder as speed increases.

How can I mitigate this? There doesn't seem to be any mechanical issues when I move the bed by hand, it is smooth and easy to move.

I’d check the bearings too.
