    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Guy, by your description about the power supply you must have an Xbox One Fat, if it is making a sound you must take your equipment to a technical assistance so that they can help you and see what is wrong with the equipment.

    My xbox 360 AC power adapter is making a very bad noise

    Is your power supply in a well vented area?

    I want to think that heat my be an issue with the power supply being loud.

    Another suggestion would be to use a friends power supply and see if it makes the same noise.

    If not could be a faulty power supply.

    Xbox One Netzteil sehr laut [translation-Xbox One power supply very loud ]

    Hello Sacha,

    In this About the Xbox One power supply article, it is explained that the noise of the fan within the power supply gets
    louder as it heats up, and in this case the power supply might be overheating.

    Try a different outlet, to see if a different energy source produces the same results.

    If this does not cure the noise, the power supply may need to be replaced.

    Try this out for us and let us know if this works.

    Best wishes!

    Will my Xbox 360 die soon?

    Check your power supply unit. Last time I got three red rings my power supply had died on me and I had to get another one. If it's making a whistling, whining noise then it's on its way out. Make sure it's free from dust aswell so that it's not over heating.

    Power supply placement, temperature, and noise

    To provide sufficient cooling, the Xbox 360 external power supply uses a built-in fan to blow air through the PSU. When you press the power button to start your Xbox 360 console, the PSU fan starts. Typically, the PSU fan makes a "whirring" noise. When your
    Xbox 360 console is in standby mode or when the console is disconnected from the PSU, the fan does not operate. The speed of the fan increases or decreases when the temperature of the PSU changes. If the fan speed changes, the "whirring" noise that the fan
    produces increases or decreases.

    To help the power supply operate efficiently and safely, follow these precautions:

    Don't block any ventilation openings on the power supply.

    Don't put the power supply on a bed, a sofa, or any other soft surface that might block the ventilation openings.

    Don't put the power supply in a confined space, such as a bookcase, a rack, or a stereo cabinet, unless that space is well-ventilated.

    Don't put the power supply near any heat source, such as a radiator, a heat register, a stove, or an amplifier.

    Don't stack other electronic devices on top of the power supply.

    Make sure that the power supply is positioned horizontally and lays flat on the four rubber pads on its base.

    If the power supply is making excessive noise, you might have a power strip or surge protector that is overloaded. Plug your power supply directly in to a wall outlet and see if the problem persists.
