[QUOTE="danimaltron, post: 753907, member: 72021"] hmmm def not dvd drive. nothing in there, and sound is much further away. Almost positive now that it is the fan. I can also sustain the sound by holding laptop at specific angle. The weird sound stays until I change the angle. I wonder what would make a fan sound weird while tilted? I also did some tests, and it has nothing to do with the casing slightly warping/bending. It does it when supported on a flat surface that is tilted. I guess I'll call Apple and see what they suggest. This is my first Mac... this sucks. Thanks [/QUOTE]
