I'm actually appearing to have the same problem. Last Wednesday I picked up the new 250 GB as my last Xbox succumbed to that dirty red ring after 5 years of use. When I first picked it up everything was fine, not a sound to be made. Friday night whilst playing Super Street Fighter 4 I noticed that there was a bit of noise coming from the Xbox, the same sort of aforementioned vibrating fan-type sound. Its pretty alarming to hear such a noise from something that is supposed to be quiet as can be. Its actually quite a disturbance now that I think about it, and its in constant effect while playing Dragon Age. I'm going to go ahead with the previous advice on here of installing it to the hard drive and hopefully that will clear things up, then I might not have to return it. At this rate it doesn't look very good. I'm thoroughly unimpressed, especially since I was hoping for once this would be the defining version of the console and I had just spent $350 on this not 5 days ago. Good luck though hopefully your issues as well as mine are resolved. But letting you know, you're not the only one.
So I've had this for a little while, long enough to know it would probably be more fun with a few friends to play it with. With that being said, if you play and care to make a friend or two that also plays drop your tag.

I can't see myself getting one, theres just too much stuff out there right now to want to go and spend another handful of cash on a variation of something I already have.
