My computer's fans are very quiet, so if any component makes a noise I know about it. The bottleneck in my system is my hard drive. My computer scores 5.9 for everything in the Windows Vista Experience Index except for the primary hard disk, where it scores 5.3.
Now, my hard drive makes clicking noises. Not like when a laptop hard drive is overheating, but fast clicking noises, where it's writing information to the drive. Is this normal for all hard drives or would a better hard drive be quieter?
