[QUOTE="Steve K, post: 1432405, member: 247192"] I bought a MBP 15 a few months ago and I am noticing noise from the hard drive that I am 99% certain wasn't there when I got it, in fact, a while ago I had a work laptop that was very loud so I always notice how quiet a laptop is since then. It almost sounds like a small fan and while it isn't loud, it is very annoying and distracting when the room is quiet. It never changes pitch or speed and sounds kind of like a bad bearing. So, before I head over to the Apple store 30+ minutes away, my question is, does your newer MBP make any noise, and if so, does it sound like what I describe? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
