Jim_ aka Reboot Registered: 04/21/02 Posts: 11343 Loc: Columbus OH	Originally Posted By: jerryfox3 If I install a SSD will this noise you think go away for good? Not if it's the fan. Download this. http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/23049/smcfancontrol You can adjust the speed of your fans. Increase the speed, if the chirping gets faster or louder it's the fan. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor

NucleusG4 MasterBlaster Registered: 04/19/02 Posts: 8338 Loc: Miami, Fl.	I was more referring to the utility to check the S.M.A.R.T. status of your HD. What is the current status now? You can see this at the bottom of Disk Utility. _________________________ http://davidbearphotography.com/ ==== It appears that autocorrect has become my worst enema. ---
