Apple released several updates Tuesday with solutions to noise problems with MacBook, MacBook Pro, and SuperDrive optical drives and solutions for AirPort client software.

Both the MacBook and MacBook Pro EFI firmware update allows users to use the SuperDrive firmware update to make the noise of the optical disk during startup and waking from sleep.

Products affected include:
iMac (20-inch, Mid 2009), MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2009), MacBook (13-inch, Early 2009), MacBook (13-inch, Mid 2009), MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008), MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008), iMac (24-inch, Early 2009), iMac (20-inch, Early 2009), Mac mini (Early 2009)
