Sudden Motion Sensor click

Hey

I found this thread in here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=752049

This guy has the same problem, a clicking sound from the computer, as me.

"I found a way of reproducing the click - turning the Sudden Motion Sensor (SMS) on makes a click, turn it off, makes a click again (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1934). Then I asked my friend to do the same on his MBP (same model) and his one didn't make the click. I'm getting a replacement."

Mine also click if i turn the SMS off or back on.

Can some of you please do me the great favor of trying this out, so i can see if is normal or not - and if i should turn my machine in for repair:

No harm will be done to your computer!


Thanks a lot in advance!

EDIT: Please also write what MBP model you have

 

I'm not gonna turn it off - i'm just doing this as a test and i always turn it back on.

The problem is that i really think i have a faulty hard drive, and i think this might be a way to conclude it.

The only guy, in the thread i posted, who had the problem decided to get himself a new HD. His friend and the others in the thread didn't have the clicking sound, so i don't think it's a normal thing, like the link you posted describes, that i experience.

Can you please try doing the terminal command and see if your computer clicks, so i can se whether or not i'm right?
