Interesting - My Xbox One uploading while powered off/in standby

LOL Jwalker, straight from XBOX.com

In Instant-On power mode, your Xbox One console is up to date and ready to use. In this mode:

Your console automatically downloads updates.
Your console starts up in two seconds.
You can wake the console using a voice command. Just say “Xbox, on.”

Notes:
Your console may sound as if it’s on when downloading and installing updates.
In Instant-On power mode, the console power supply unit (PSU) remains on and the solid white LED on the PSU is bright. You may also hear the fan in the PSU.
The console uses 15 watts of power when in Instant-On mode.

In energy-saving power mode, your console is shut down to save energy. In this mode:

Updates are not downloaded and installed until your console is turned on.
Your console takes 45 seconds to start up.
You must press the Xbox button to start the console.

Notes
In energy-saving mode, the PSU is in off/standby mode and the solid orange LED on the PSU is bright.
The console uses 0.5 watts of power when in energy-saving mode.Click to expand...

It says it downloads the updates on the console itself when you go the settings. They even talked about it during the press events. The uploading is probably just various amounts of data that we probably agreed to so that can gather general info about how the XBOX One is being used.

Xbox One S Noise When Off

Hi

From the way you describe it I think the noise is probably normal. The console power supply has to maintain power to the console even in energy saver mode so it is able to recognise when you request to switch the console on.

Hey there irokjls44!

That boot up sound is perfectly normal! If any other noises come up when using the Xbox One console, be sure to post back so we can help you get it sorted!

It is definitely in Power Savings mode and not Instant-On. The noise continues after the Full Shutdown.

I'm as certain as can be that the noise is coming from the console itself and not the power source.

the slim makes a ding noise when you power it up from the console or hit the eject button

Try to put your console vertically. This should reduce the noise level. You can when you start the game from the disc, slightly on the right side of priudarit, quite a bit, it saves 95% to 60% noise.

I've got the same problem. Everything else is fine. When I power down the console the white light stays on and there is a fan noise from the power brick. It's very annoying. I've taken the console off power saving mode so now the power brick LED turns orange
and the fan noise stops. Like yourself, I wish to know if I need a new brick or is this normal?
