  1. Safe to purchase a new Xbox One?


    Basically, in the period of 2-3 I went through 7 different Xbox One's. I'm now looking at the White edition and I'm thinking, " Will this work any better as it would seem all the commotion has calmed down?". I now have a normal Xbone but the October update
    done nothing. I'm left with this noise that isn't so loud but, It's loud enough for me to hear when watching TV and Playing games. That's why I dislike it.

    What do you guys and gals think? I just want another whisper quiet console, it's not too much to ask for really.

    :)

  2. AC Adapter in China

    The safest method would be to buy a new power supply for the Xbox 360 from Microsoft in your region. You will be able to purchase one if you phone Xbox Support in your region.

    Have you ever done a Hard Reboot?

    Holding PowerButton on Xbox 1 for at least ~15 seconds untill it fully powers down! wait ~30 seconds until it is complet^ly Powered Down! The light of the Power Supply should turn Orange!

    If it has turned orange unplug Power Supply from Xbox and from Electricity for another 60 seconds...

    Try again... if it is still too loud request an Exchange or Repair..

    But I personnaly have never seen a "total-dead-silent" Fan.

    Yes XBox one is a console made for digital World, but it still Need some analog technics and mechanics to get something we call Hardware...

    When I remember a running XBOX 360 Original, which has sounded like a Flagship the One is really quiet..

    I know there is a silent humming, but I don^t believe that it can be erased as Long as the xbox one has this actuall design..

    And as you said above you had 7 xbox one`s !! and all sounded the same.. so for what are you hoping? There must be a Sound that we know it is running. isn^t it?

    sorry for the following sentence but: Maan 7 Units? how good are your ears? please don^t waste ressources and our planet^^ yoû wouln^d Exchange a Ferrari which produces no Sound by driving... because you think it is not running.... man there is something
    called tolerance..

    I really don^t want to be rude... Please try HArdReboot, it should get a Little bit silenter..

  6. It also depends on the type of surface the console sits on, mine is on toughened glass shelf I cant hear it at all, my external HDD was on a wooden shelf part of the same unit sounded like a tank put it on the same shelf as the console silence.

  7. also make shure that the unit is placed at a well placed area where enough fresh air can come in..

    May it is loud because it Needs to cool down a lot, because the hot air can not go away in your stack..
