I've noticed my HDD makes constant sounds if I leave a HDD Utility program (e.g. HD Sentinel, HD Tune) open.

Would this be really bad for mechanical drives? Being accessed all the time?

Having the utility open shouldn't do anything. I assume it's not constantly testing it so this would be a sign of another cause.
