    Hi,

    My laptop's hard disk makes some noise at start up, its not very loud, and you could feel it if you have your palms on the palm rest.

    it this normal? its a new laptop, run less than 50 hours.

    thanks

    What kind of noise is it? Though it's probably normal.

    Post up a recording if you can.
