    I've had my AA1 for about 14 months now, just last night it started to make a really loud and nasty clicking/crunching sound - kind the same sound my external hdds make sometimes when they are being read, only louder and crunchier!

    It sounds like it's coming from the top left - so just near the sticker with the manuf date and where the vent is on the back/side

    Has anyone came across this issue before - is it the hdd (odd I thought as it's an ssdd model so I would have thought no sound?) or the fan?

    It's out of warranty so I guess home repairs are the order of the day if possible?!

    Sounds like you have a problem with your fan. It's probably normal wear and tear! I don't think you'll be able to do anything more than remove the fan by yourself. You may need to send it in if you wan't it back to normal.
