Last time I had a similar noise, it turned out to be a seized brake cylinder

This is easy to diagnose: It will make the drum hot. Touch it carefully after a bit of a drive.

It could also be wheel bearings, which are much harder to get to than the CV joints!

Does the whine track with engine speed or road speed?


Road speed, I think.
