Hi,

I have a WD 2TB passport that is making this weird clicking sound. I’ve had it for a while now. Is it time to get a new drive?

    Clicking is not a good sign for a hard drive. Yup, time to replace.

      Thank you! This is just a backup drive and I have 2 other copies if the data so ill get a new backup drive soon and all should be good. Can you think of any interesting uses for a drive like this now that I cant trust it?

        I disassemble and retrieve the magnets, there may be other uses…
