[QUOTE="todd51, post: 254014"] Ok, whenever I had my laptop sitting on my desk at school I could easilly hear the hard drive spinning or "whining" as people called it. I decided to let it go and if it got worse I was going to send it in to Apple. However, now I have the laptop sitting on a table back at my parents' house and the HDD is not whining at all. The ONLY difference is that the laptop is NOT plugged into the AC power, it's running off of the battery. How could this affect the HDD sound? [/QUOTE]
