Hey all,
I just got a 1TB Iomega Prestige USB 2.0 external hard drive and it is making some strange clicking noises and behaving unusually. I haven't used a ton of external drives and my question is whether occasional clicking (even when the drive isn't being accessed or browsed) and some stuttering when watching a video off the drive (coincides with the clicks) is normal. I am running the drive on a windows 7 machine formatted in NTFS. Thanks a ton for any help you can provide.
