Hi guys,
I've just brought an Emachines PC (2nd hand) and the first thing I have noticed is that the HDD is noisy. It's not clicking, but everytime there is HDD acticity is makes a crunching noise...nothing spectaular, but just very noisy. i thought the disk was going to fail so I have swapped a maxtor HDD from another computer over to the new eMachnes one to backup the data. However, to my surprise as soon as I put the Maxtor in it also started to become noisy! Is this PC cursed or are HDDs meant to be noisy?!
Thanks....
