Post Yo laptop hardware problem


Hello this doesnt have to do much with linux but nevermind
I have a Toshiba Satelite Pro laptop, and I already had my harddrive changed one time (it bugged out and stopped working).
Some nights ago my I started hearing weird roaring from the place my harddrive is - at least, I think so. This hasnt stopped since now. The laptops' performance hasnt changed but the noise is making me wonder if I should backup my data or not
Thats it... if you fellas have something to write about it, please do so.
Thanks in advance, be happy!

Backing up is always a good thing.

When in doubt backup your stuff

I've never regretted it (even though I've never had a HD fail on me so far).
