Hi...
I bought two WD Caviar Green 1TB (WD10EADS) HDDs in May 2010. They're used as backup drives. I seldom used them in the past three months. Recently, I heard the similar sound (when the HDDs did nothing) as described below.
You may find more complaints at the following links. Both of my WD Caviar Green 1TB HDDs were manufactured in Malaysia. I believe some of our friends in this forum work in the Western Digital at Petaling Jaya. Do you think both my WD Caviar Green are still OK and safe to be used as backup drive?
Caviar Green 1TB Very annoying noise

WD Elements with permanent access noise in idle
