Yes, it could be. May I assume the "another" HDD have the same problem? Note that there may not be a problem at all .. that a HDD doesn't work at a constant rate - it will spin up and down and make different noises depending on the demand made on it. Furthermore, your computer may put it to sleep after so many minutes of user inactivity in order to reduce power consumption. Now please post in plain text next time, eh?  )Saucy "DarkNight" <n/a> wrote in message news:... > Hi there! > My computer`s hard drive spins irregular.... > It is brand new, and I tried another hard drive as well. > My computer chassis is also brand new, so it is suppose to be stable. > > Can this be of a faulty PSU? |

Sometimes it's the way the case mounts the harddrive. You can get reverberations and various noises. We had put a WD Raptor in one case and thought it was a noisy drive until we got a new case - an Antec silent job which suspends the HDDs on rubber band-like mounts - and found that it was the case more than the drive responsible for the noises.
