i have a few western digital drives (40eb), all tests ok, after a few hours of work they click and enter busy state for a short time (the same sound as turning on and off).
in time they develop fake bad sectors.
interesting is that when i do surface scan, even after a few minutes from start, and i touch the drive with bare hands they do the same thing. if i touch them with something else, nothing happens.
i know that wd's are very sensitive to statics.
do you know if the cause is firmware or pcb?
