In computing, Click Of Death or COD is the condition when you start receiving unusual clicking sounds from storage media like hard disk drive. If you observe COD with a hard disk, it primarily indicates read/write head failure. Since read/write heads float at negligible height from disk surface, any crash between them can produce such sounds. If your hard disk is suffering from a hard error, the actuator makes sounds and clicks as if the drive is trying to recalibrate. In most of the cases, hard disk COD serve as pre-failure symptom. So, it is required that you backup all the important data stored on the hard disk as you start receiving such sounds. However, if hard drive fails while no valid data backup is available, you need to consult Hard Disk Recovery experts.
