HDD making weird noises

[Julijans]

Today my hdd, which I bought a few months ago, started making this noise every few minutes. Should I be worried?

Can you check the drive's SMART data with a tool like CrystalDiskInfo and post a screenshot here, please?

 

Depending on the drive, that could be normal or it could be a problem.

Thanks!

 

I think your drive's probably okay, but make sure you have backups of any important data on it regardless. (Even when your drives are healthy, you can never have too many backups.)

 

I think you can tell the drive to do a self-test from the menus in CrystalDiskInfo; running that would be good peace of mind.

 

Check it again in a week or so. If the values (besides start/stop count and spin-up time) don't change, it should be fine.

Can't find that, maybe u meant CrystalDiskMark?
Also, yesterday I had my first blue screen in 3-4years with this pc, and today the hdd started making those noises
