    Hey guys,

    I was just wondering if anyone's hard drive compartment to the left of the notebook (next to the firewire port) is loose? Is that compartment something I can open and tighten, or should I just leave it alone? It's kinda making a squaking sound every time I lift the notebook and seems to be one of the more flimsy parts of my notebook.

    Thanks...

    Ok thanks. I'll try tightening the bolts and see what happens.
