Hi guys I just got my new Seagate 300GB SATA drive delivered but I’m having some strange issues with it.
Straight after format there was a loud audible *click*, you know the one that sounds a lot like a cross between a click and a snap.
After every *click* reliability drops 14% (ish) and to count there have been 4 so far.
Am I right in thinking this might be the arms striking the platter?
