I have GOOGLED this issue and found too many variances for a proper solution. So now I am hoping someone can solve this annoying (scary) situation I have with my computer.
The disk drive seems to be continuously "crunching", especially when it is idle.
When I move my mouse this noise stops, unless I know I am doing some heavy data input/output.
This scares me because I read somewhere this may be overtasking the drive itself and create a premature crash!
I have the latest Windows 10 with the current updates as best as I know.
My disk drive is a 2.0 Terabyte WDC, Driver date 2006-06-21
I have 16 GB RAM, 64 bit OS, with an intel i7-6700 CPU
I have not been able to finds a solution to this problem.
My Task Manager indicates no programs running when I check it out.
Anyone know why and how I can correct this annoying sound?
Thank you
