Oh, that is great news. Thanks, Connie
Connie:
I don't think the whirling sounds you're hearing are indicative of hard-drive distress. I think you're just hearing normal operation sounds. Clicking sounds usually mean the read/write heads are having difficulty seeking and tracking properly, possibly due to damaged sectors. If you're using a Mac, you can plug your iPod into it, put it in drive-mode, and use Disk Utility to check and (if necessary) repair the iPod's drive.
But, I actually think that all is probably well with your iPod.
