    I was taking a nap in my living room recently when I thought I heard the faint sound of a cricket. How did one get into my house in the middle of the day?

    It turned out that it was the sound of my TiVo hard drive. Although it was kind of a quiet and soothing sound...good for a nap...I am not quite sure if this is the beginning of the end of my 4 5 year old Premiere...

    Thoughts?

    I'd think that is an early warning.

    You can easily replace that via weaknees. Probably easy and barely more money to go larger at that point as well. Click their ad link in the upper right of this forum and check them out.

    Are you sure it's the hard drive? Cricket noises could be the fan.

    Then cloned to a new hard drive of equal size.
