NOISY COMPUTER DRIVE
Everytime I go on my computer, about 10 minutes later my computer drive gets really loud..I can't explain it but it's like an echo or vibrating really loud sound and it's annoying the heck outta me!
Any ideas? I sticked my pillow on the side and it seemed to help butthen my head hurt when I slept on the pillow afterwards =S

ok computers have a fan in them, just like cars have radiator fans
it makes sure the engine stays cool and doesnt overheat
chances are, thats the sound ur hearing. You could have a virus that causes ur computer to do more work then needed, or you are runnin too many programs at once for your computers system. Yes blocking off the sound would make it quiter. As for the pillow making your head hurt, depending on the type of material it is made out of, certain pillows can absorb radiowaves like internet, and when you lay down on it you'll have radioactive waves traveling through the pillow.
So try scanning for viruses, and cut down on the programs being used

maybe you should move the pillow because it could get really hot and catch on fire. that would be bad. my old computer was like this. when it got too obnoxious, i would (no lie) hit it. slap it a few times on the side and see if it stops.

Take the pillow off right away - you're risking overheating the PC and possibly melting something!
Unfortunatly, theres many reasons why the HDD could be making extra noise, but it doesnt have to mean the drive is going to die.
There's not a lot you can do about it yourself other than take it to a repair shop or replace it, but wait for it to fail first I guess. Make a backup of your disk asap just in case though.

That basically says how to stop it, and the rules are different for each part of the computer that's rumbling.
