Hi everyone. This morning I noticed my hard drive makes a faint, high pitched buzzing sound. It only occurs when the drive is accessed (opening folders, files), or when opening/loading a browser window. I have run CHKDSK and the HP TuneUp utility and have passed both tests with no problems. The computer itself is only a month old. Is this just regular drive access noise?

It's a SeaGate drive so I installed Sea Tools and ran the read tests as well as the diagnostic self-tests. All passed - and strangely the drive never made the buzzing sound during any of the tests. There isn't the clicking sound (thank goodness) though I will continue to monitor it. Might just be something I never heard before
