Like I said, they may have changed dimensions from the version I have and the one you have, SuperGroove. But I got one on March 03, 2003, from REI, and here are some pictures of it…

It could be going bad. usually that is a sign of a drive going bad. If it continues to do it I would worry. If not then I would just keep an eye/ear on it

if it's clicking it means the heads are hitting each other. back your data up immediately. chances are it will fail, don't take a risk by waiting to back up.

backup all your data buy a new one be happy.... the clicking noise is the first signal of a HD death.... If you don;t have a external FW HD (portable or not), it's also a good time…

good luck! mine did that, within three days it failed completely.

Damn thing is done for at this point - I can't even boot before it locks.

Well, I took it outside (it's 42 degrees) and I have it running (I've read that heat can cause the clicking). I'm backing up everything I can think of to DVD. I suppose that at t…

It's been working for several days now without any issues. I'm not sure whether I'm happy about that or not.

Next time it locks up, call Apple!

The HD on my iBook did the same thing before it died. Back up everything important and get a new one.
