No one know "how it is caused," it just happens. I have lost several drives
and many disks to the Click of Death, but you have to work with what you
have. Never had any of the disks or drives I lost had any association with
PCs of any flavor.

The one disk I use to go between the PC and my Mac has been fine for a very
long time, with no hint of CoD (Knock on Zip Plastic).
