How can I make my iPod hard drive quiet if it is making a funny “grinding” or “clicking” noise?
If the hard drive in your iPod has started making an unpleasant “grinding” or “clicking” noise, it is highly likely that the drive is failing. Make sure everything on your iPod is backed up and scan the disk for errors. If the disk scan indicates that there is a problem that cannot be fixed, you likely will need to have the hard drive replaced or otherwise have the iPod repaired.
