About every 30seconds to a minute, I hear one of my hard drives spin up, at which point the computer begins to choke for a few seconds (videos get choppy, can't click the mouse, can't type, etc.) Is one of my drives on its way out? How can i find out which one it is without physically unhooking them. The way my case is arranged, it's a PITA to get to the hard drives.
 
Set your hard drives to not spin down. Power options, more options, turn off hard disks after, never.
