Sticky caliper possibly?

Had one sticking/dragging on my old XR2 and it made a humming noise.

To see if it is a sticky caliper piston check your pads and if one side is worn down a lot more then thats prob what it is.

Apart from that i wouldnt have any other idea of what the problem could be :-?
