Hi,
I have had an external Hard-disk for about 2 years now. The problem, is that it makes a strange tick noise, and then you can hear the disk spinning up again, like when it just starts up. Now the problem is I cant determine whether its the casing, or the drive itself that's faulty. This only starts happening after a few minutes of use. During this time, I cannot read or write to the disk. It doesn't stop ticking until I restart the device.
Anyone have any ideas on how I can determine what the problem is?
Thanks!
