Clicking is the sound produced by mechanical parts TP.  There are no mechanical parts in an SSD.  You may hear a slight electrical hum or capacitor squeal, but I highly doubt you're hearing clicking...unless you're crazy, which is a distinct possibility.

Probably echoes from the relays in his head.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
