It's been doing this for a while now, and it's slowly getting really annoying.
I have 3 Hard drives in my PC, here is what they are and what they do.
80GB- Windows Install, a few programs and files, Photoshop scratch disk.
160GB- Main program drive, main file drive, also has Page file of 4-5GB
74GB Raptor- Main Games drive, some files, Photoshop scratch disk, 1GB page file.
So here's what happens, usually when i'm just browsign the web, maybe with iTunes and MSN open at the same time, one of my hard drives starts making a reading/writing noise (idk what to call it, sort of clicking..., but not clicking, you should know anyway) And my HDD LED starts going crazy, so it's defiantly doing something.
Yet my Vista sidebar, shows me live HDD usage, sees NO change at all over the current usage.
I have made sure when it happens, that my Anti-virus/spyware etc are not running tests.
Nothing on the PC slows down in the way of opening/loading things...
So for some strange reason every now and again i get some crazy ass stuff going on, then it'll just stop...
Any ideas?
