Is Clicking Hard disk when accessing data normal?

• cndc8 on November 07, 2009 09:43 PM

  Seagate hard disk mga one year palang, wala namang noise pag di nagaaccess ng data, pero pag nagoopen ng file sa loob nagcclick na.. normal ba yun o pasira na?

  IMHO and based on my experience, back-up your files na - pasira na hdd...

  Option is to iupdate the firmware. I have two Seagate 320GB's may clicking sounds since the beginning, inupdate ko firmware ngayon madalang na lang mag clicking sounds two years na buhay pa rin.

  talag panu yung firmware sir? 7200.10 to eh

  Firmware parang "mini bios" ng hard disk. Check mo muna hard disk model mo, e.g., STXXXXXX, kunin mo firmware version (pwede yan makuha ng Intel Matrix Storage Manager, downloadable sa Intel site), tapos punta ka sa Seagate site, sa section ng support, tapos search mo firmware ng drive mo. Kunin mo yung mas bago na version ng firmware. Kunin mo rin procedure kung paano iapply yung update.

  Usually ang firmware yung "Revision". Sa Everest pwede rin makuha
