brand new drive clicks very lightly
What does it mean when an almost new HDD clicks very quietly? On startup a few times, and very rarely when it's not startup, I can hear it, but barely. I have a bare drive in a BlacX dock. I just bought it a month ago, though I've run it 24/7 for that month.

Sorry it took me so long to reply.
