Hard drive click on startup! Should I be worried?

I am a little worried about my computer. I was at college for a few days and just got home. I turned on my computer and as it was booting up the HD clicked like three times fairly loudly. Everything seemed to be working fine though. I shut it down and restarted it and it did not do it again. It has never done this before. The drive is an 80 gig Western Digital (link to drive below) and its in a Dell dimension 2400, the drive came with the comuper. I also ran WD's dianostics and it said the drive was fine, no errors came up. Should I be worried about the drive? Do HD's sometimes click like that? I dont know what I am going to do if I have to send the computer back. Maybe I should call Dell? And back up everything I have (which is not too much)...
