I am now on my 4th macbook (all others were horrible), and this one is perfect except for one thing. The entire thing vibrates constantly. I know its the harddrive. The three white macbooks that i had before this all did the same thing as well, all though the degree of vibration varied amongst all of them. I was at an apple store last weekend and checked the macbooks there, and every white one vibrated, yet none of the black ones did. I guess my question is, is this a problem? It seems a little strange to me that most, if not all, white macbooks do this.
Got a tip for us?

I don't see what the problem is....
Ok. really. dos this really happen in most people's whitebooks????
not in mine.. i mean, sure, sometimes you can feel the hard drive going, but it's not certainly not constant.macdaddy121 said:
I'd say that if you know certain that it is your HDD that is causing the vibration that that surely is not a good thing. There is no reason why your HDD should be constantly spinning (being accessed). This will shorten the life of the drive if it never spins down.
