    My wife just unboxed her NB205 this afternoon, and found that any slight motion would trip the HDD shock protection application. We opened the properties and turned its sensitivity down from Level 3 to Level 1, which helped a lot, but it's still popping up for relatively minor movement -- shifting her weight in her chair, etc. I don't really have a "baseline" for what it should be like -- could this be a defective unit, or am I just worrying over nothing?

    I have mine set at Level 2 on battery and Level 1 plugged in and I hardly ever see it come on...
