I have a new XPS 8500. I installed an SSD in SATA 0, left the DVD in SATA 1, installed the original Seagate HD in SATA 2 and placed a new WD 1T Black in SATA 3.
First I did not change BIOS. Is this configuration okay.
I have clicking in the new WD about every 3 seconds. I did an RMA and the replacement clicks as well. I disconnected the drive and clicking is gone. Is there anything in the BIOS settings that contribute to the clicking. Is this an issue or something that is consistent with this WD drive? I have replaced numerous drives and never had clicking before.
