How to eliminate rattling noise from either cassette or RD?
I do not know why but when I use the large chainring with the third or fourth biggest either my RD or cassette rattles. But when I use the other cogs it doesn't rattle at all, it only rattles when I use the fourth or third biggest cog. I tried to move the cassette along the axle but the cassette itself won't move, so I don't know why the fourth and the third biggest cogs rattles when I use em though the real derailleur shifts wonderfully. Could it be the pulleys coz I notice that when it rattles the pulleys move a bit. Please help me what should I do???

Maybe they are your most used cogs and are more worn.0

not really, I don't really use em that much, but I still need them0

Is the chain aligned well on the RD pulley wheels. Had a similar issue of rattling chain & it was jumping off the side the pulley wheel on the RD. It wasn't in line properly.
Overhaul the RD might be worth doing:

Also might be a bent hanger:0 -
the hanger is not bent and the chain is also aligned, I really don't know what causes the rattling0
