I bought one of these to put in my new 13" Macbook Pro. It's a 250 gig Western Digitial Scorpio Blue (<-- helping the search engine).


Mine makes a "tick" every 10-15 seconds, sort of sounds like the second hand on a watch, but only if it ticked every 15 seconds.

From what I am reading, this can be considered normal with these drives and OSX? I have googled it and most people notice it, and a few complain, but so far no one has really said if this is a problem or not.

So, is it a problem? Or is it just a part of the power saving and such???
