If the internal storage is a hard drive as opposed to an SSD, then
there's nothing weird or odd about it. Physical shocks should *always*
be avoided with hard drives, because the read/write head floats only a
few nanometers above the spinning platter, where even what we might
think is a /slight/ shock can send the head crashing into the platter
("Oh noz, my HD crashed!"). And the hard drive isn't the only sensitive
component in a computer, either. With a hard enough jolt, there are
other things that can go wrong. 

In general, you should follow this simple rule: be careful with your
expensive electronics if you care about them.
