If it's just an electrical clicking type noise then that's just normal hard drive noise. This noise will be louder if your drive is 7200 rpm vs. 5400 rpm. If your drive is making a whirling spinning sound that may or may not be continuous then you probably will have a hard drive problem soon. My mac makes that noise only sometimes (usually its brought on by watching videos from the NBC site). Now I run my laptop most of the time off an external firewire 400 drive with my audio session files off an external 800 drive. Mac got rid of the 400 connection on the new computers. Bunch of idiots if you ask me. Audio needs firewire 400 interfaces if you're recording (USB SUCKS!), but I digest... my awesome togos sandwich now. Hope this helps.<br>
