Yeah, this is one of the very few things about the 360 I would change. It could definitely be quieter. Once you've had it awhile though, you do learn to "tune it out" I must say.

Everyone said that the original xbox was loud because of the fan and hard drive. I don't see how its a problem, its only noticeable when you're at a loading screen without music. People just need to stop complaining about every little thing, if they don't like it, figure out how to replace the drive with a quieter one (not directed to anyone here, just the idiots won't buy a 360 because of one little problem that doesn't effect function).

Mine freezes a lot. Like when playing a game for a while I'll start to hear "Tick...Tick....Tick" coming from the disk drive.

Whats that mean anyway? When that happens, my game either freezes, or lags, or freezes upon next load.

I tend to complain a lot about 360s because mine broke 5 times. And it took 3 weeks or more to repair each time it broke.
