Vaccum Leak 850 97 T5

in reference to an earlier post about my brakes humming, i was told that it is possibly a vaccum leak, perhaps entailing my brake booster. Is there any way to test for leaks myself? As always, any help appreciated.

Does the nosie sound like going over railroad tracks, if so you need shims on your rear pads you need cut them in the shape of the letter [L] the nosie should go away if not you wiil need rear rotors
