Really Noisy Western Digital Hard Drive

This is my WD Caviar black 1tb Drive, its really noisy and not that fast. Its only about 3 months old so is there something wrong with it? Its done this pretty much from the day I got it.

I also ran a speed test and it came out at 80mb/s on average compared to my much much cheaper Samsung 1tb at 120mb/s and the Samsung drive is silent it makes no noise at all. Pretty disappointing as my Samsung drive was £35 and this £80 :(

Anyone know if something is wrong with it??
