Apple Acknowledges Some MacBook Hard Drive Problems

Months after problems were first reported, Apple is finally acknowledging that some of its MacBooks have faulty hard drives. The company is “looking into” the problem. Well that is reassuring.


Retrodata, a U.K. data recovery firm, reported earlier this year that certain 2.5-inch Seagate drives used in MacBooks had a manufacturing flaw that causes the drive heads to scratch the surface of the drive and cause major problems.

Unusual for it to be Seagate drives causing problems.
 
Apple are "looking into" the problem...haven't heard that one before! - Shouldn't they actually "look into" all eventualities pre-sales...?

I admire companies a lot more if they just put their hands up and admit they messed up...we're all just human after all!
 
They're committing suicide because they found out they were installed into Apple machines, rather than PC's ;).
