Thanks!

Also I went even farther and bought today a Crucial M4 SSD (256Gb) to make it better suited for traveling. Now my MBP is silent, lightning fast and with increased battery life. Clean-installed Lion, no problems! Woohoo!
Now I truly love my mac!

P.S. I hadn't even realized how actually noisy my stock HDD was before I replaced it with a Crucial M4.

Agreed. I never travel without my laptop and have never had an issue.
