the thing that worried me is a loud "click" coming from the HD when i press the poweroff button...

but anyway, it should be ok then


I thought the same when I got my first HDD-equipped Amiga, but any computer will make that "click" sound, even after it's been "shutdown" - it's not a problem.

IIRC really old drives did need "parking" to an area where the head wouldn't damage the platter when it crashed down - I can only assume that was before the Amiga? :-?
