Hello everyone!

I don't know if this has anything to do with the SCSI Controller or
what,
but I recently put in a third hard drive -- a Seagate Baracuda -- and it
every 5 seconds or so goes "click-click", like it's doing a drive read,
but always the same noise ... "click-click".  My old drives didn't do
this,
and this happened even before I was using the drive (ie, when it was
sitting
unpartitioned in my powered-up case).

It's probably not a big deal, but it's annoying.  It's on the Ultrawide
channel of my Adaptec AIC-7895 Ultra SCSI host adapter sharing with a
couple of IBM drives.  If anyone out there knows what's going on, give
me
a email please ... if not, like I said, it's probably not a big deal. 
I'll
just slowly go insane ... click-click, click-click .... ;-)
