Hi mr_dev,

Please let us know where exactly the sound is coming from, whether it is on the left side or from the front of the system? The devices which can give sound in the system are hard drive, fan and speakers. In this system fan is on the left hand side, speakers are in the front part of the system, hard drive is at the bottom. Also let us know if it occurs only when you are using any particular application.

Please do reply for further assistance.

its coming from middle of the keyboard  .

at first when using pdf or media player then its occurs every time .its stop for minutes then start again .

when scan or make diagnostics i dont find it . may be its not found when doing this operation or covered !

thank you

@simmo287  yes it is Toshiba MQ01ADB100 ATA drive

I hope to be normal sound

thank you

My hard drive is also making clicking noises from time to time but this doesnt have to be a failure. It can happen when the hard drive moves its "heads"

May I ask what hard drive you have installed in your system? Mine is a Toshiba MQ01ABD100

the clicking sound seems to be normal at this hard drive. So dont worry.

If it was broken the smart test would very likely detect this or at least any other errors would occure

@simmo287

I think so

thank you

Hi mr_dev,

When the hard drive is in use there might be a clicking noise time to time and it is normal. When the noise is very frequent and continuous then there is a problem with the hard drive.

@ DELL-Senthil S  

i ll ignor it tell causes something ,i hope to be normal

thank you

Sorry to awaken this old thread.

For what it's worth my Toshiba MQ01ABD100 (just got it yesterday refurbished) also makes a slightly audible(but annoying) clicking sound from time to time usually when it isn't busy.

Are you still using this drive without any issues in spite of the clicking?

Thanks
