All newer Segate hard drives have that distictive "clunk" of the heads parking after spin up and some produce a "buz" sound after the drive reaches full spindle rotation. If the drive seems to continue spinning then chances are the drive is still good (to varify have the drive pluged in, powered up and not mounted to anything you can feel it spinning in your hands). Segate drives are built like tanks and can take alot of abuse.
