If you are concerned, I would back up your data, and contact your vendor or IBM about a replacement. That sound can indicate a pit in the hard drive. It could be there from a couple of things. If the computer was jolted while the heads were reading, it could have hit the disk. It could also just be a bad spot that came on the disk, and with 60GB to roam, the heads wouldn't be hitting that spot very often.

BTW...your english is far better than my French. Your English is also a lot better than most English speaking people who post here! I'm impressed.
