Yep, it's working.  It's not loud, just noticeable over the usually completely silent case.

It's because Folding@Home is using alot of power of your Ps3 so the fans kick in to cool it down.. Nothing to worry about..

this is gonna sound LAME but it kinda sounds like the ocean.  It's soothing all most... maybe that's just me though.

folding does.. you can turn that off though, and it'll be silent to where you can only hear the ps3 fans..
