Hi,
So how many TiBook users have a high pitched whine coming from the hard drive? I'm trying to figure if it's worth replacing mine, but maybe they all whine like this. I don't mind the whirring, but the whine is pretty irritating...

yup, i had a high pitched whine from my hard drive. the older, non-fluid bearing hard drives will do that. nothign functionally wrong, just old bearings.
upgrade to the newer fluid-bearing drives from ibm or toshiba and you'll have a much nicer/quieter computer. all new powerbooks/ibooks use the fluid-bearing drives now i think.

The whining noise on my Ti 400 is not from the hard drive, but from the screen being on too bright. When I turn the brightness down to two "clicks" from max, the whining stops.
Any suggestion on how to fix this?
