Just got a 12tb drive from eBay. As I’m transferring data to it I notice I hear stuff. Is this normal or did the drive arrive on deaths doorstep? I have ssds everywhere else and don’t know what to expect from hdds.

Also, how can I put the hard drive through its paces? I’m sure there are diagnostic things I can do to test it on Mac.
