[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 398964, member: 24098"] The one comment I would make here is to be aware that the latest OS updates introduce a new delay into the eject key. You must hold it down for approximately 10 seconds before the eject happens. Slot loading drives make noise - it's a function of the assembly itself. Some make more than others. Drives that use a tray are less complex mechanically and therefore make less noise. The case "warping" issue is common amongst MacBook Pros. It's a product of the earlier problems with older models where the keyboard was making contact with the screen, damaging it or leaving residue. In order to avoid these problems, Apple widened the gap. Since the hinge tension is not even, there will be a couple of millimeters of gap on either side sometimes, which is normal. I don't buy the explanation of expansion with heat, sounds like a retail clerk's way of not having to explain the problem more thoroughly. [/QUOTE]
