I've already gone through previous threads by searching for this issue and i found nothing, so no flames.

i have a 15 gig ipod, and my problem is with the HD click. now i know all HD's make those clicking noises every now and then. the main concern is when i flip around my ipod i can hear and feel the HD click, and i'm wondering if this is normal. i'm not shaking the ipod violently just to hear it, but its there.

i was planning on going jogging with it but i want to find otu if this is ok or not. maybe i should take it back to the store?

If you are close to a store, you could just ask them about it. In any case, I'd say just take it jogging anyway. The warranty is one year long.

If you did a search, you probably already read this, but I'll say it again anyway.

If it clicks only when you shake it away from you and back, and not when you shake it from side to side, that is completely normal, and will happen with any properly functioning hard drive. If it is anything different than that, I think it would be worth it to get it checked out.
