[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 573157, member: 8287"] With all the clicking drives I have dealt with, usually the OS pauses when it's clicking and there are hesitations when loading programs. When you hear the clicks do things pause when loading for a couple of seconds? I have seen brand new drives out of the box have issues so it could be a problem. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder and check the S.M.A.R.T status of the drive like Knightlie suggested. [/QUOTE]
