Why do i hear the external hard drive noises through my usb speakers?  email this discussion to a friend?

I have a laptop with usb speakers and an iomega hard drive.

Everytime i connect the external hard drive i hear that noises coming from the drive are amplified by the speakers. Why? Please explain me this. I bet it is because they are on the same bus? (usb)

thanks in advance for your reply, you are the best!

Probable "leakage" in the installation of your hardware. Is there a cable cover that is open or torn?

of course not, i'm using all manufacturer's supplied usb cables!

Well in short, sound is a wave of vibration. If your bus is delivering that vibration and you believe that they are on the same bus, then that is a very plausible solution. But in retrospect, you may have a much more complicated problem. I would suggest getting some one with better knowledge to help you out, lol, but I suppose that's why you proposed this question right.
