The hard disk on my work computer has started making a gentle high pitched whine when idle. It's not constant, it kind of rhythmically fades in and out - then when the disk does something it stops. Does this mean imminent death? Or just a noisy bearing? I've run a SMART test and everything comes back normal.
The strange thing is, it started doing it when I upgraded to Windows 7 and installed some extra RAM
