Having worked my way through 4 360's due to them constantly dying and getting the red ring, I swore to myself id never buy Microsoft again.

So recently (Tuesday) I evidently forgot that and purchased a 'One'. My friends have gone this way and it seemed logical..

First one had this noise;

Took it back. Swapped no bother. Brought new one home.

Second one has it too!? Now I know this isnt a normal noise becuase my friend has one but come on WTF! Onto my third without even getting to playing a game?!

If my third does the same when I get it tomorrow im getting a PS4 irked

fk you Microsoft. Get your quality control in order!

It sounds to me like you don't look after them or maybe store them in the oven whilst it's on? I had a 360 from launch in a well ventilated problem and no issues what so ever. Most people I knew who had issues had stuff on top of them or the console on the carpet. No idea how you are now killing ones but I'd expect the same .

Don't run it from your airing cupboard? It should run silently.

That video isn't my actual console just one I found online. Mine sits on my desk in the wide open.

That video sounded like the hdd loading, so what? Can't see the issue here.

It may be that but it's not supposed to be that loud. Friends is near silent.

I'll see how the third goes when I get it today...
