This morning I tuned on my comp, and instead of booting normaly, the monitor remained in sleep mode and the hard drive was emitting a strange clicking noise. Now, I assume that this is the dreaded "clicking sound of death" so I'm currently backing up all my files. The hard drive is a western digital caviar drive and it is about 2 years old. This is a little early for a HD to fail isn't it? And, how long does a HD emitting the "clicking sound of death" typicaly live?
