a squealing drive usually means that the bearings are going bad.  If it is
under warranty, replace it before the warranty runs out...  if not, don't worry
about it for a while.

We had a Jasmine DD80 do that; it lasted for over two months before the damned
noise got too annoying to deal with.  Jasmine quite graciously replaced it.
