I've recently just updated my BIOS on my asus laptop to fix my "ACPI.sys" problem but now, whenever I plug an external USB drive in, or do a hybrid shutdown my hard drive makes 2 loud-ish locking kinda noise (similar to when I turn on my laptop), i'm guessing its the HDD head parking... Should I be worried about this?

If not... can I stop it from making a loud noise?
