Is it working still? Or are you having problems in addition to the weird sound?

You can download a diagnostic utility from WD that will run low-level tests on the hard drive and report any harware failure.

That sound is a definite indicator that the HDD is dying/dead.

Well the bad news, the drive is dead - if its working at all right now get off anything you can, get the important stuff off first.

The good news is the drive is only 10 gigs so you can't lose more than 10 gigs of data

Since the drive is only 10GB in total capacity, we can consider it quite old. I seriously doubt if it is full... May this WD rest in peace

The WD stands for Western Digital and here's a link:

Take the computer to a shop where they can back up the data to a new drive, before the old tired drive fails completely.

You can do this yourself by buying a new drive. Download Western Digital's install utility. Install the new drive a a primary slave. Run the utility and copy the old drive's data to the new drive. Remove the old drive from your computer and install the new drive as the primary master... and your done.


Confused now?
