sometime when I pick up my 13 '' mbp I hear a cling or a ping noise
it seems to come from the hard drive area , it only happens when the
it is on and when I pick it up or I move it around on my lap, the optical
drive is not being used either , it runs great , maybe I am being
paranoid but it has done this since new and that is only 4 weeks,
anyone else experienced this?
 
tilt it violently left or right

See if it does the same noise.

If so it's the Sudden Motion Sensor, parking the heads on the hard drive.
