    Okay I got a copy of Spinrite, I tried to run it to perform some drive maintenance after hearing that the clicking noise is a possibility of defectiveness.

    It won't run gives me weird issues saying BIOS settings issues..

    Anyone know the reason or a workaround to this issue?

    I'll assume Dell went rambo and locked down the bios like mad.
