    Fan spins before Powering off the Xbox


    I have a question regarding turning off the Xbox one in energy save mode. When I turn off the console, the fan turns on and spins up for a half second right before the xbox powers off. Is this normal?

    :)

    Hard drive

    Sounds like the drive isn't staying spun up. Not a good sign.



    You could try a transfer cable. That should stop the 360 from powering off when the drive spins down, but it's debatable as to whether or not you can get anything off the drive while it is spun up.

    Hey o DOVA o

    This is very normal, you actually want to make sure your fan is also running while the console is on. This way your console doesn't over heat. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask them. Happy gaming or something like that Fan spins before Powering off the Xbox :)

    Xbox 360 (white one) Doesn't load quick happen today and doesn't turn off straight away

    It is possibly downloading content before it shuts down, turn off background downloads and hopefully you should not have any more delayed power offs, the fans keep spinning as long as the unit is on.

    Is it possible your console in on instant on mode? That could be the reason why the fan is still on. If you turn the power to power saving mode, that will turn the console off without the fan spinning.

    How did i not think of this. Still odd that the fan is always spinning though, hopefully the bearings will last.

    I think you are right, I'm pretty sure instant on is active, and I'm guessing then that it's a capacitor making the noise.

    Thank you so much, if I can find a rep button you will receive it!

    Very hot when "turned off"

    If you have it in Instant On mode it will pull power, spin up the HD to check for updates and install them and even the power supply fan is always on. Want your Xbox to actually be off, then put it on Energy Saving mode which only takes about 15 seconds
    longer to turn on.
