It could be. (Could you describe the sound a screen would
make?) In any case I would still want to know
1) Is it considered normal, or is it common? ( My duo 230 didn't have it.)
Would it be considered a problem -- a sign of something wrong, or a
problem in itself? (I know it's a problem to _me_ in that it bothers me,
but don't know whether the place that sold it to me would agree -- which
is why I'm interested in first finding out from others how typical or
atypical it is to hear a noticable whistling sound when your hard drive is
quiet.)
2) Do you know if it's possible to fix it?
Thank you.
