Confirmation needed on a noisy wheel bearing

My logic and various online sources/videos confirm that when turning to the right (thus transferring the vehicle's to theleft side and loading up the left side wheel bearings) it makes my noisy wheel bearing noise continue or get marginally louder, which in-turn makes me think it is my left side wheel bearing that is bad (specifically the left rear). Can others confirm this is correct? Oddly, I've read multiple other opinions/stories online that say otherwise.
Just want to confirm before I even get to the point of getting the car up on jacks and testing it manually.
FYI, I went with an Amazon-sourced replacement Timken wheel bearing.

135k, and honestly it is because right now I've not got the time. I've got my wedding in a month, and every weekend is dedicated to the event and planning and such. No time for misc car projects. But this has to be done. It's not bad, but it's not something I want to take a chance on.

After spending another $230+ on a Chinese-made ABS/speed sensor, the new wheel bearing is installed and doing well! Time for another alignment though since I HAD to remove the ENTIRE hub assembly due to the sensor being completely stuck in the hub. Dang NJ-sourced 2IS. LOL!
