    i noticed a loud hum coming from the unit today..i thought it was coming from the TV. but it is the xbox making the sound when a game is inserted..what could it be?...is it about to take a crap?

    It sound like the dvd drive. This is not normal. I mean it is going to die.

    ohh please dont scare him like that. mine has been doing the same thing for a looong time and its doing better than most. if you bought it used then it is probably the disk drive ut you can replace those cheap.

    Actually its a combination of both.If the Xbox HD is reading alot of data it hums like that and if the DVD drive is humming its because the speed that its spinning at so dont be scared.Its natural.
