while powering on, my mac book air, recently there is sound like hard drive chattering is there. what should i do?
MacBook Air 11″, macOS 12.4
The only moving part in a MacBook Air is its exhaust fan. Apple Diagnostics will exercise it, and perhaps you can correlate that noise with what you are hearing:
Use Apple Diagnostics to test your Mac - Apple Support
The exhaust fan may be contaminated with dust, resulting in that noise. If you think that is the cause, dust or other contaminants should only be removed by an authorized Apple repair facility. Click Get Support to find one.

Hello Dran1? Have you thought about buying a Solid-State Drive? One has no Moving Parts.
I bought mine a-couple of months ago & it's Quiet, :--)
