I can't tell if the noise is the DVD drive or the hard drive.

I can confirm the problem still exists on Ubuntu 9.10, however I think
it might not be the hard drive (in my case), but rather the DVD multi-
drive.

I'll open a new bug for this as it's clearly unrelated to the above.

That link is broken.

In my case I'm fairly sure the drive is not broken - the noise only
occurs when the laptop is running on batteries, hence I think this is
head park/unpark that occurs in power-save mode.

I'll soon be installing 9.10, so I can confirm the problem still exists
then.

2009-10-28 Thread Dominik Stadler
There are various cases where hard-drives make strange sounds, sometimes
the drive is slightly broken and the vendor usually agrees to a full
replacement if the drive is still under maintenance. Sometimes certain
settings can cause such a thing.

Can you look at the description and proposed workaround at
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_hard_drive_clicking and
report back if any of those help your case here?

Comment:

I have a similar problem; I occasionally (every few minutes) hear a two-
stage clicking noise clack-click that _might_ be the hard drive head
parking/unparking.

If it is possible to somehow log this event we can confirm that it is
indeed the head parking/unparking - how can we log this?

Thy Quest:  Could you issue the following command at the command line sudo 
lshw, then search for SAMSUNG to see if see if we have the same hardware.  
This will help confirm where the problem lies.
