Getting inside my Macbook

Took me like 30 damn minutes...

I had my Macbook for 4 years now. It's an awesome thing to have. Well, one week ago it started making clicky noises and few hours later my macbook died. I decided to get inside and fix my Macbook (I never fixed Macbooks before, just pcs'). I saw 3 screws and I was like... man, this was easy! Not... I keep finding other screws everywhere (had to take battery out and other things to find more screws). Total, I had about 30 screws (6 different sizes) that hold my Macbook together... WTF!?

Anyway, I found where clicky noises can from. My hard drive burned down. Apparently, Macbooks have a weakness and it's their hard drives. After 3 years of service they tend to die. Any Macbook user out there, if you hear clicky noises on your macbook (it's very quiet clicky noise which lasts only for about 15-20 seconds) it means save all your information on a back-up storage because your macbook has less than 24 hours to live.

Good news is, it's very easy to replace your hard drive. I ordered me a new hard drive from amazon for $60 which I intend to install as soon as I recieve it.

Yeah in general if you hear those noises you know death is coming. HD's are the last mechanical device left in computers, and if you're willing to fork the dough you can get a SSD and move on into the future. Unfortunately it's still too damned expensive.

But I guess my point is, the HD will break. Every one will. It's just a matter of when.

My first MacBook, I think it was called a Power Book or something... but yeah the arm of the HD nose dived into the disk like after 5 years. I've had my current one for like 1.5y so we'll see how it goes.

      Question to the posters on this thread because you are knowledgeable--I love watching and pull for the Canes, but I never played so I don't have the understanding I had when I played football then watched it.  Having said that, Do you think we are weak at Center?  I see the team to be pretty strong on the wings, promising defense, and weak at Goalie.  It would be ideal if the Canes had 1 more position to upgrade, not 2.  I don't think you can count on Anderson to play a full season and he is 35.  However, are we solid at Center in your view?

      Couldn't agree more, Kooch is erratic and Freddy is fragile, maybe save the remaining cap space for a goalie stud at the deadline

      There is one play that sold me-- it was around 2:38, I think.  It was 4th and 1 and the QB telegraphed and threw the ball out wide to TMac.  He had no blocking (the TE was very late) and four defenders collapsed on TMac behind the LOS. They seemed to know it was coming.  He got hit behind the LOS and battled through several hits to get three yards.  THAT play showed me his fire.
