Really? You better watch out! -- those are the *wrong* noises.
MY Seagate hard disk makes

	BEEEPEEEDEEPEEBEEP click click. BEEEPEEEDEEPEEBEEEP..... cleek.
	WHIIIIIIIIIIRRRLLLHH WHIIIIIIIIIIRRLLLHH, click click. Tic.
	
	AHH-FFFFFFFFFFFFFF  AHH-FFFFFFFFFFFFFF.......

but only when I'm using it.

I'm plain lucky to have got such varied noises for the same price.
Specially the "AHH-FFFFFFFF".
