[QUOTE="Tim Quinn, post: 216777"] Sounds like nothing is wrong. Basic laws of a gyroscope. Never tilt anything thats spinning in a circle, its momentum will force it to try to stay level. Same thing happens if you try to tilt an xbox or playstation while the disk is spinning, the disk doesnt tilt as fast as the unit and it will rub against the tray (or in some cases against the laser lens). Basically, just be careful not to tilt your notebook when there is a disk spinning, not good for it. Cheers, Tim Quinn [/QUOTE]
