==Aftermarket hardware problems== {{unreferenced-section|date=February 2016}} Among the MacBook and MacBook Pro community there have been several owners who installed aftermarket hard drives already equipped with anti-shock features who reported experiencing [[kernel panic]] errors whenever their unit was physically moved. This is believed{{by whom|date=June 2019}} to be due to a conflict between SMS and the new drive's anti-shock function. The [[Western Digital]] Scorpio series of notebook hard drives have been the most frequently reported{{where|date=June 2019}} as being susceptible to this problem. In practically all cases, disabling SMS alleviated this problem without any negative performance impact.{{according to whom|date=June 2019}}
