If you have an older hard drive, then it's most likely a hardware issue. But, if you have a newer one it could be either hardware or software. Regardless, you'll want to determine the root cause of the issue before it leads to data loss. Most often, the clicking sound comes from an actuator arm that's not functioning properly. 1. The hard drive is suffering from damaged read/write heads. 2. The platter motor which should spin the platters inside the hard drive chassis has become seized. 3.

I have it plugged into a monitor and nothing shows up on the screen when I get it all running. The buttons work on the front. Sorry, I almost forgot, an easier step is to right-click on "my computer" and choose "manage". Then in the window that opens click on "disk management" to the left of the window.
