Ryan's computer has been running kind loudly, so he's been shutting it off when he leaves for work. Just now, I started hearing weird noises, and though he left his computer on.

He didn't. It's my computer. It sounds like a loose fan more than a drive, thank goodness, but two ailing computers = bad news. Meanwhile, my videocard has been dying slowly for months, and both our monitors are iffy. Someone give me lots of money, please. ;)
