i recently pulled a toshiba MQ01ABF050 2.5" hdd out of an external drive for an old pc I'm fixing, and it makes loud clicking sounds when its seeking, i don't know if its just that way this drive works, or if its on its way out.

 

if anyone knows, it would be great to have a second opinion5bab19098ea1a_IMG_2018-09-2605-26-28_1.thumb.jpg.cee8cd58b00d38e4f73033d737598bd1.jpg

a HDD shouldn't actually be "clicking" at all.

 

clicking = bad and the drive likely wont last much longer
