Apple Acknowledges Problem With MBP 7200rpm Drives
"Owners of Apple MacBook Pro notebooks with 7200rpm 500GB hard drives have been complaining for months of clicking sounds followed by temporary stalling. According to Apple, a fix is in the works." 
The problem has been happening in the 500GB drives that run at 7200rpm, with reports of a beep shortly before the hard drive clicks and the computer stops responding. There are several reports on the Apple forums that it is totally random with no correlation to a specific incident. According to Apple rep Bill Evans "We are aware of the issue and are working on a software update." Well half the battle is won by the acknowledgement, however they can't give a date for when the update will be available.
