I have a macbook pro 2011. I have the 5200rpm hard drive with the 2.3GHZ processor. When the computer is off and you are holding the computer and shake it there is a clicking noise coming just under the power button. I sounds like buttons clicking, but it is not the buttons. Would it be the CD drive components moving? I ran the AHT and nothing came up
 
It's the SMS triggering. Don't worry, it's protecting your hard drive and not harming your computer in any way. :) Good day.
