Seems there is a hardware or firmware problem with the new MacBook Pro with the 7200 rpm Seagate drives. Users with the 500GB drives are noticing random occurrences of a clicking sound, then an audible beep, followed by a complete system freeze for several seconds. This happens randomly and doesn’t appear to be related to system load or any activity.
Apple engineers are aware of the problem and a fix should be forthcoming.
