Xbox 360 noises

Yo! I turned on my Xbox 360 and I heard a click/locking- type of noise. Maybe it was the DVD drive or the lens specifically; I don't know, I've never heard it before. Has anyone else experienced this sound or other weird noises? Will my precious Xbox 360 be ok?

My 360 makes tons of weird noises, and some vary on a day-by-day basis. One day on startup, it'll beep, then click, then beep again. Another day, it won't.

Honestly, the 360 is a strange machine, but as long as its functioning fine - your console will be OK.

mine make a brr sound but works without failing

I'm pretty sure I know the sound your 360 made. Mind seems to make it pretty often, usually just after I turn it on. I think of it almost like a house settling, but it's just the 360 settling. :lol: Something like that.

The only thing I can think of is it has to do with the heating and cooling of the inner components. It definitely is a clicking kind of noise.

Mine made grinding noises so I send it in. I have a phillips dvd drive now and they fixed the motherboard aka replaced the heatsink(?).

It's all good now.
