noises.

Soft clicking can be the normal sound of the drive working. If the drive is functional, this is normal. Drives do

 

 

not typically give an indication of any problems prior to failure, so it does not mean it is about to fail if the

 

drive is making a clicking sound and still functioning. If the drive is non-functional, there are two possible

 

causes:

 

The drive could be corrupted. Reformatting the drive can solve this issue.

The drive could have a failure in the external power supply or power cable. Try using a different one, if possible.

Hard clicking is a very noticeable sound, and is akin to hearing metal-on-metal impacts. This behavior usu- ally indicative of a physical failure. If nothing traumatic happened to the drive prior to this starting, consider it to be soft clicking, and troubleshoot the problem as suggested above.
