Doing hardware test from the apple cd is it accurate?
Because i want to test the hard drive on my macbook pro.The problem is when i have an audio file in the arrangement when the audio plays and i move to diferent parts of the audio to listen(You know with the little speaker) the D flashes.Any ideas?

If it's the stock HD ie you didn't select/pay for a HD upgrade then it's 5400 rpm.

The 'D' is the Hard disc indicator next to the CPU load.
I mean the 'D' lights up.
