A: It shouldn't do that.
Q: I have a Dell XPS8930 desktop that says it takes 3.5 in SATA Hard drives. Will this work in it?
A: It will work perfectly fine, you don't need a NAS hard drive and can save money with a standard 8TB hard drive. The NAS hard drive is the same but designed to run 24x7 with alot of activity happening with it. Definitely more durable than a standard drive.
Q: One of the reviews discusses a clicking noise- is that normal? What causes that?
A: Clicking noise means the drive is faulty or dying so back up your data while you can. Check with the manufacturer for warranty replacement.
Q: will this work in a dell xps 8940 desktop tower
A: Yes. You can install up to 2 of them. You may need to purchase a SATA cable if you don't have a free one and/or SATS power splitter.
A: Who advised you of such a thing? Are you sure they knew what they were talking about?
