I have a Mac-IIcx with an Apple internal 80MB hard drive. Lately, I often hear the sound of the disk seeking tracks which goes on without end until I do something like opening a desk accessory. The seeking often begins when starting a program or moving/copying a file from one folder to another. The system keeps running, though much slower. What is this problem, hardware or software? I'm running 6.0.7, created from original distribution diskettes, and the Apple Disk First Aid and HDSC Setup programs both say the disk is okay. I have also reformatted the disk and restored it from floppies (using DiskFit). No weird INITs. Using Virex, Disinfectant, and DiskLock (files/folders only), all current releases.
