It first happened when I was checking email, and now it's happening while I'm watching a video on the internet. It's like a grinding/scratching sound coming from the HDD. Nothing appears to be wrong with my files when this happens, but I was hoping that I could post my HDD's Speccy report and see if something is bad. Check it out:
