Strange noises from external hard disk
Hi guys,
I just bought a new 500 GB external harddisk and it has been working perfectly until I dropped it from about a metre and now programs on it got slightly slower, accompanied by strange clicking noises inside, plus the laptop takes a hell lot of time to read it, if none at all. Any suggestions? I still have the warranty with me, but i doubt theyll give me a new one should they notice it fell from somewhere thanks |
dropped it from about a metre Best solution is replace it. By all means try the warranty route, if it doesn't work, you have not lost anything extra, and you may end up with a free replacement. Try and clear any data off it before handing it over on a warranty exchange...... |
In fact, copy anything important off it immediately - your time may be limited!

thanks for that!
took it to the shop and they'll replace it... |
I take it you didn't tell them you dropped it......:O
Nice one. :ok: |
