A technician notices that a computer is making a loud clicking noise but continues to run. System
speed is barely affected, but they cannot access certain drives. These are the symptoms of which
of the following?

A.
Failing second hard drive

B.
Failing system hard drive

C.
Bad CMOS chip

D.
Bad CPU fan

Explanation:

There must be a second hard drive that is failing. When you hear clicking noises and the speed of
the system is not affected, the second hard drive is failing since the primary hard drive is running
the OS and other applications and it is working fine, it means the second hard drive has a
problem.
