Can't help you on the NCR driver, but I think this noise is normal for the Atlas. At least the one I had here made this kind of a noise, every time an update flush ran (I used this drive for a month at home under Linux) That same drive is still going strong at work as our main news drive 6 months later, so I don't think the noise is a sign of imminent failure. -- John Henders
