    Replacing a Disk before it fails
    Been reading a lot of threads about HDs dying so I thought I'd show this to y'all...

    Turns out your disk drive is pretty S.M.A.R.T.- Open disk utility, select your disk drive on the left side and then look at the bottom of the window to see the "S.M.A.R.T. status"

    Specs:
    Aluminium Macbook 2.4 Ghz 4GB RAM, SSD 24" Samsung Display, iPhone 4, iPad 2
    That means 'alright'.

    If it said failed, you should back up your data ASAP and see about getting a new drive.
