[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1629381, member: 234411"] Hello again - please provide model/year of the MBPro. Does the computer boot up normally and is it useable despite the 'noise'? If so and if you do not have any type of backup, then consider getting your important data onto an external drive and/or USB storage (I suggested some options in my initial post). At this point, a failing internal HD cannot be excluded. Has there been any recent damage to the computer, like a drop? Do you see any change in appearance around the trackpad (could be a swelling battery which may impact on other nearly internal hardware)? Are you still under warranty? Dave :) [/QUOTE]
