A "whir(r/l)"? I'm not very used to english sound descriptions. My
notebooks spare disk IBM-DARA-218000 makes that noise when coming out of
any kind of standby state.

This my above mentioned disk does this, too, randomly. Sometimes under
high load, sometimes after only a simple sync. Dunno. Maybe _that's_ the
"recalibrating". No errors so far. But this disk may be quite old (18GB,
purchased approx. 4 years ago) - made of steel.
