...Seriously !

I've got a Dell Latitue D610, I don't know if that's good or not; it's a business one, so as long as it switches on in the AM and doesn't die in front of a customer I'm happy ;)

Now this is the 1st time I've had a Dell so I don't know if this is normal, but while I was working today I decided to FTP a backup of my stuff onto it (about 4GB), and as I did, the laptop made a high pitched squeal ! As you can see from the screen shot of my system monitor, it's working hard, but still that noise can't be right !

If anyone else has a similar issue please let me know, otherwise I'm gonna have to run some tests to nail down what's causing it !
