what material are the pads? Some are more metallic than others & can cause an audible resonance. If brake performance is not impacted, it would be just a personal preference to address it, otherwise, it make stop or fade less over time of being a nuisance. You can try a 200ish grit even scrub followed by a clean wipe down using denatured alcohol on both sides of the rotor to see if it changes any. If it does lessen or eliminates the noise & comes back, it's likely the pad material. If it never returns, then you removed a potential surface contaminant.

Just like rim brakes I've had in the past, with my disc brakes if they start squalling, then I just make sure they are clean with some alcohol and it goes away after a ride or two.
Usually they develop an annoying squeal after riding in the rain. But again, just not worrying about it every moment gives it time to fix itself in a ride or two..

Damn OP, could you maybe make that post a little easier to understand? Try some punctuation every now and then. Like periods at the end of sentences. ... . .

I'm trying to help you out. You don't need to have a degree in creative writing, I'm talking about middle school knowledge.

Which is more important? Your brake issue or rebuking someone that you feel impugned upon you wrongly?

I always make sure to clean the rotors before using new pads, then make sure to bed them in. Everyone has their own method, but I still believe that fast to hard and long braking works best for me. Good luck
