Clicking noise...

IMightBeWrong · 08-20-2007, 11:50 PM

I recently received my 1720, and I have been hearing a strange clicking noise coming from underneath the keyboard, kind of on the left side. Is this normal, is anyone else experiencing this?

If the HDD is on the left side that is it. Have read C2D make noise but not clicking. HDD.

So it is normal. There's nothing wrong with my notebooks is there?

I thought clicking noise in HDD is not good. I may be wrong.

HDD may be faulty I heard... can anyone comment!!!

Tech support asked me to remove the HDD and if the noise goes away then they will replace HDD.
