well today was not a work day. had lots of errands to run including replacing more parts for my computer. my battery back up surge protector died and i had to get a new one. also i may have confirmed the true reason why my hard drive kept chirping
the USB strip i was using is powered so you can have plenty of devices plugged in..it was also about 6 years old. i did some more research trying to find an exact match of the sounds my external drives were making. the closest sound i found was from a youtube video that said that noise was cause due to insufficient power for the drive
so i got a new usb strip and now i will wait and listen. if a week passess and not chirping. then that was the real problem
