[QUOTE="Dysfunction, post: 1363928, member: 51052"] 1) The HDD is considered user serviceable by Apple. So if it's replaced, it ONLY means their warranty no longer covers it. (I've sent machines in with 3rd party RAM, HDD's etc and NEVER had a problem) Taking from that they want you to BUY your original hard drive from them, well.. let's just say I wouldn't believe much of what they say. Now, that being said, hard drives do have a motion sensor, and will park to protect the disk. This will be more evident doing something like reading files locally than downloading something from the net. [/QUOTE]
