When I'm playing my Ps3 slimI might start to here a snapping sound, ora popping sound, coming from the ps3. I' m kind of concerned about this, like something might be breaking inside. Is this normal orshould I worry about this?

It's normal. I wouldn't worry. Mine does it all the time after I cut it off.

My console does it too. Seems like every slim owner has this so i wouldnt worry too much. Just make sure your console has good ventilation and you should be fine.

Yeah, I get a popping/cracking sound after a turn my Slim off... I'm assuming it's just materials expanding/contracting from the temperatures.
