Any clicking noises is due to either a faulty fan, or a sound playing through the speakers....sometimes sounds can come from the speakers even when you are not playing any audio on the computer. Or the noise is coming from some externally connected device.


SSDs do not make any noise apart from a possible high pitch whine which some people may be able to hear, but this is extremely rare.
