If I drop the MBP say a few inches (onto something soft like my lap) whilst its running I can hear a crisp click coming from inside the laptop, happens everytime. What could this be?
 
It's the sudden motion sensor locking the hard drive into place. Perfectly normal. One thing I don't get - why would you drop your computer on purpose?
 
I did it by accident whilst it was on my lap, I thought something was loose inside so I did it a few more times to see what it was.
