Its getting quite irritating, its as loud as the fan on my PC which is very distracting when the tv is turned off.

Is this normal????
Have you tried holding the sides of the box, mine made a noise like the fans in a PC and i could hear it over the tv but i pressed the sides of the box and it stopped it, the case was vibrating. Its done it a couple of times since, but a simple press on the case and it stops. Mines virtually silent normally, I can just about hear the harddrive when I get close upto it.
