Some drives have a term toggle on them.

Is your terminator active or passive?

All academic as I think the drive is toast. If it was clicking when the server was functioning then, well, you know.
There is one removable enclosure, but I think it is second on the chain, but I would have to look. I am pretty sure that the drive made a few clicks, but only around spin-up. I know that most SCSI drives tend to click at least once when the heads are released. Maybe what I heard was both drives releasing the heads?

I'd just rather be safe and clone the drive. Looks like I hold off and try to find an old similar drive around town or I figure out how to clone it to PATA/SATA...
