So my macbook has started to frequently make a very high pitch noise on and off. When it makes the noise the entire computer locks up with the spinning little color wheel. I do not think it is the CPU because you can still move the pointer around. I do believe the noise is coming from the hard disk, but I do not want to think it is the drive. The noise and freezing can correct itself by three ways, 1. Run its course and in 5 min the computer is runnable. 2. Do a hard reboot. 3. Tip the laptop 90deg towards me and then set it back down.
All signs point to a failing hard disk, but all the scans I have done said it is ok. So any ideas?
Thanks!
