Hello there, I have a very strange problem that nobody else seems to have (IMG:

Last week I bought a 120GB WD Scorpio BEVS UST0 drive and followed the hacking guide with no problems to make it an "official" 360 hard drive. The I copied all my exisiting data to it and profiles and so on. Put it in the Xbox 360 and for some reason I keep hearing this "clicking" noise when I do nearly anything on the dash that access the hard drive.
It sounds more like a "tic" that a click to be honest. It's definately NOT normal accessing of the hard drive, because when I actually do access it properly for example when installing a game to it, its completely silent. I wouldn't mind so much but this "tic" noise can be heard every 20-30 seconds when watching a video from my NAS...Why the 360 is even accessing the hard drive during this is beyond me... (IMG:

It sound a little bit like the drive might be going in and out of some low power mode like the drive heads are being parked after each read or something?
I thought it might be a dodgy drive, but I ordered another one from a different retailer - again a UST0 and again - EXACTLY the same behaviour....
Surely this isn't normal?
Is there maybe some power management software I could load in DOS on my computer to change a setting in firmware like a lot of drives have maybe?
Am I doing something wrong?
Does anyone else have this "problem"...
I can't believe that anyone would be able to tolerate this in all honesty.....
Many thanks for any help\guidance with this.
