My 2 tb wd passport is only 3 momths old. It's making very loud and quick clicking sounds. Been using the HD without any issues until today. I was watching a movie on my Sony Bravia tv, then the video stopped playing and a couple seconds later the clicking started. The HD was warm too. Disconnected and reconnected the HD a minute later, played the movie again, the same thing happened about 20 minutes later. (I previously owned a 2 tb wd my passport ultra, which worked brilliantly with my tv for 8 years or so. Then the same clicking issue happened, it stopped getting recognized by my laptop as well. So I got this new one.....) Now I'm using the HD on a newer Bravia tv and It's working without issues.

How can I make the HD work with my old Bravia tv?
