no it's Fine, ur HD is OK,

it's WD intellipark, an HD IDLE feature to save power, WD HD automatically parks the drive's head after 8 seconds of inactivity to reduce aerodynamic drag, enabling the drive to disengage read/write channel electronics to save power

there are Software to disable the "intellipark", just google it but im to afraid it will mess up my HD...so i just get used to it, wh have same HD.....

@BV93630360JUAN First that's a different model. Secondly, I've never had WDC not fail on me, so this is no surprise. Glad your data is fine, for now maybe.

I have a WD32000BEVT Scorpio Blue and I have never had problems with it... Plus its never this loud like this model.

lots and lots of noise. not to mention the spindle is way above normal speed in this instance.

your harddrive is dead, save the case, buy a replacement, put in there. make sure you get the right kind, IDE, or sata laptop harddrive

No, that's Idle3(or "Intellipark") I think. Mine did a very similar thing, kept spinning up and down, and lagging 3-5 seconds waiting for the platter to spin back up when I needed to access it. Idle3 is a very ham-handed attempt at saving power by Western Digital, and it made my WD5000BEVT almost completely unbearable to use.

Es HDD va a morir... busca la factura o la garantía donde la hallas comprado. Si vas a comprar un HDD nuevo que no sea Hitachi ni Samsung!!!
