systimax Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Hello, 10.48 and 10.49 (not 10.4.6) both after sleeping...when they wake up i have a black screen and the harddrive make this continuously clicking noise. Like the heads are jumping around real fast. Anyone ever see this? I was hoping the new kernal included in 10.49 8.91 would fix this but it didnt. any ideas what would cause this?

I also hear the clicking noise periodically after I try a wakeup - scares the hell out of me.

systimax Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 yeah and i tried the new koolkal kernel and the same. anyone know the files that are used for sleep? It worked for me in 10.4.6. I was thinking just to replace the files from my old install to get sleep to work.

nightshift Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Hi, I have the same annoying "clicking" problem. Clue should be in power management or intel ata driver (as i see everyone here has a intel mobo). In my case i think its related with power management or again with intel ata driver (hdd goes nuts and parks and unparks heads). Mobo: intel 945GM (ICH-7) HDD: sata Western Digital Scorpio Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45917-1048-1049-sleep-wake-up-clicking-noise-with-hd/#findComment-355576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proximity Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I had the clicking noise in 10.4.6. When I was under Windows and didn't unplug the 10.4.6 HDD before, I had periodically 2sec. of fast clicking noize. I think it took a month or two until the 10.4.6 HDD was broken. I was neither able to format the HDD nor to zero it. Until the HDD wasn't even recognized by the System anymore. (I couldn't test Low-Level-Formatting) In my opinion the sound comes from the head hitting the disk(s) due to sudden power loss. Backup your data unless its to late.
