is like loud whirling noise whenever the computer start and continous. it's ibm 120gig. is that bad or just typical normal
 
Has it always made the noise, or did it just start. Maybe it's just loud.

Backing up your data is never a bad idea, then if it does die you'll be okay.
 
get on ibm's website and see if they have a diagnostic program you can run on the drive. chances are it will give you an error code that you can give IBM and you'll be able to RMA the drive
