    I just got my m11x yesterday, does anyone notice a slight vibration when typing? I feel it through my palms which are resting next to the touch pad. Is it normal? Running on default balanced power plan.

    7200rpm drives will produce a slight amount of vibration.

    Definetly the hard drive, especially 7200RPM. I had one before and had to get rid of it because of that.

    Get an SSD, you will hear nothing and there will be no vibration.

    Very nice, but expensive =)
