I just got my first MacBook Friday. So far everyone is working out fine except the dvd drive. I have the C2D 2.0 with the superdrive. When I put a cd into the drive, the drive makes loud clunking/clicking noises. But once it is in it runs like normal. I've only had one disc get stuck in and it just made the noises trying to spit it out, and that disc was the wow dvd. I ended up having to put a piece of folded paper in there to help it out.
Well I was wondering if these sounds are normal or should I take it in somewhere? And also this is a refurbished macbook.
