I'm used to hearing clicks of death from harddrives on iMacs and other Apple computers, but my Powerbook's harddrive seems to be making louder clicks than usual. While I'm sure it's the case, should I be backing up all my stuff and getting ready to ditch this harddrive? Are there any utilities that I can run to see if in fact there is actual damage to my harddrive?

*edit* The problem is resolved so this thread= can be closed.
