Spindle drives don't always give an audible sign when the fail.

I use crystal disk info regularly so as long as it is able to read the drive properly and until proven otherwise, I personally trust what it says.ĮDIT: Something to add here.Regardless if you trust the drive or not, you should always be backing up important data. As far as I can remember it has always been GPT. Serial cable is working properly on the seagate ST3160815AS with 9600 8,n,1,n when i try to communicate with ST3500320NS with 38400 8,n,1,n there is no any answer from pcb.

It may have failed because the laptop isn't Lenovo brand or maybe there is something else.

I am not familiar enough with 'Lenovo vantage hardware scan' to say what to look for. Audible volume can be affected by the drive itself, the mounting solution your computer has, and drive age. The dull fast *thunk thunk* sounds are the sounds a head makes when it is seeking its way around the platter.

My question is isn't the sound coming strange and alarming?Īlarming sounds would be bearing grinding sound, metallic *click click*, tapping, or even beeping (hint here.hard drives typically don't have speakers).
