	About 2 years ago I bought a G-tech drive, going for quality. After a year and a half, it started clicking heavily. I sent it to G-tech, and after six weeks I got the replacement. Now, two weeks after I got it back, it starts again tick-tack, tick-tack, when transferring a DVD to it. Then it goes silent, and you have to go close to the drive to hear some sound. Then you can hear the tic-tac again. It's a very low noise. (Last edited by Veltliner; Jul 18, 2009 at 01:33 PM. )
