Intermittent Noise Coming from the System

Because you’ve been using your Western Digital SATA hard drive for several years then it is possible that during its course it might have developed bad sectors already. In a computer, the only device that generates a “click” or clicking sound is the hard drive. The computer itself doesn’t create this sound.

If you hear that clicking sound on your laptop especially when you are using it for long hours, it is your hard drive that creates it. When a hard drive starts creating clicking sounds, it doesn’t mean that it is bad already. The main reason why a hard drive “clicks” is bad sectors and they can appear in many reasons.

One if you are using a partitioning software and your computer suddenly shuts down. This damages the surface of the plates in the hard drive and this creates the bad sectors. They are permanent damage to the plates. Another reason is age. If you have an aging hard drive, even if you use it properly bad sectors will still appear because of age.

If you hear clicks on your hard drive, it can cause your machine to freeze sometimes. To avoid this from happening, scan your hard drive regularly using a disk utility application like Windows’ own CHKDSK or use third-party utility applications like PC Tools Performance Toolkit. When these programs discover a bad sector, they will mark it as bad preventing any files from getting written into it.
