[QUOTE="cfabric, post: 772252, member: 78194"] Hello, I have just updated the SMC (1.2) and EFI (1.6) firmware (through SoftwareUpdate) and now I have the feeling as if the HDD is behaving strangely... Every 30secs or so it seems to spin up a bit, making a noise very much like a fan with a very soft click (dont yet think there is something wrong with the HDD, but making backups anyway...). It seems as if some power management got screwed up. Anyone experienced something similar? Thanks Chris [/QUOTE]
