Weird grinding noise from my aspire GX-785

so whenever I start up my aspire, the hard drive starts making this rumbling/grinding noise. It’s somewhat noticeable at first. But once I start something like a game or even chrome, it sounds like a stampede of rhinoceroses are about to charge down on my house and **** on my very existence. I went to the store that I got it from and they told me they would figure out the problem, 2 days later and they tell me they don’t hear anything. And so I bring it back home and the noises continue. I asked a Freind of mine who has some experience with computers and he even told me the noise was very strange. If anyone has a way to fix this, please respond, and many thanks 🙏.

Hi @Fiascospino23

Noise from HDD means its about to die.. This happens due to various reasons I.e., when the device is near to any magnetic devices, or HDD has errors, bad clusters in HDD would create this trouble.

I advice you to take back up and contact acer technical support for warranty help.

yeah, when I had opened it up the cords where all over the place. And that would suck if it was on the verge of falling apart already if I have only had it for a couple weeks. NOT EVEN A MONTH! I will try to recontact the the store and if they just flip me off again I will just contact Acer themselves. Thanks a lot!
