Spec:
8gb RAM
Lenovo T430
CPU: I5-3320M
GPU: HD 4000
HDD: 320gb
I'm trying to figure out what noise this could be. I thought it was the CPU fan all this time, but as TPFanControl says that my fan is at 0rpm I might as well fix it and have silence.
I believe that the only moving part other than the CPU fan is the HDD. The case is also just as hot above the HDD as it is underneath the CPU, if not more. In fact, the Temp readout is always 40-46C for the HDD and 30-42C for the CPU (despite the fan being off 90% of the time).
It would seem to be the HDD (meaning I need to upgrade to an SSD) but I really wanted to be sure before I buy one.
