Essentially (it is actually a bit more complicated), the information on a hard drive (or solid state drive - a computer will normally treat them basically the same, and actually floppy disks, flash...

Hard drives make sounds, just as anything spun around at 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM (typical) would do. If the sound changes than that is often a sign of a problem. There are some exceptions (especially...
