Possibly bad HDD motor?
Recently whenever I bring the computer out of sleep mode or restart it after a proper shut down one of the HDD gives off this creepy noise the kind when a motor is strained it lasts for a short second while the HDD spins up but it stops. Otherwise the HDDs themselves are fine no clicking, can run indefinitely, no bluescreens. There is three HDDs in total I disconnected the third in an attempt to figure out which one it is (also I rarely used it) and I'll have to shut down the computer again to find the culprit. The first two are about two years old I put them together with this PC the third is merely the HDD from my previous PC it's about eight years old I thought it would be the one with the noise. Lol. Other then the noise on initial spin up I can't seem to find anything wrong with them.
