It really depends on the model like my RE5 Red Elite(image below) is the most silent thing ever!!! And like what xXTime said, keep something under it to, so all vents are exposed. As you can see in my picture i have some old game cases that the xbox is sitting on(dont put anything directly under it, put it on the ends, that way the bottum of the xbox is not touch anything)

Well if it's running vertically then it will definitely run louder. Sometimes (only I haven't witnessed this with is the RE5 red elite which seams to have a tighter cut around the tray door) when games spin the disc tray door will vibrate against the case, that makes a pretty loud buzzing noise. Solution: install games to hard drive. It probably extends the life of the system quite a bit too, all those hours that would be spent spinning the disc and reading data are spared. While playing an installed or arcade game, my 'pro' console runs nearly silently.

Thanks, I'll try that. Hopefully it will quiet it down a lot.

right before my 360 died it was really loud.
sent it in and got it back. almost no sound.
that was more than a year ago.
till this day i've had no problems. it's still very quiet.

whats wrong with his Elite? I'm looking for one and if the problem isnt too bad I'llbe happy to get it off his hands
I got the newer arcade model and its sorta loud and I have it in an open space
Lol, no, it's not that kind of thing. It red ringed last summer and he's too lazy to send it in to get it repaired. It's one of those things we keep meaning to do and put off. He can't order repairs online for some reason, so he has to call, and the hours the call center is based in the US are during our sleepy time, lol.
I can't wait to have 3 again! His, mine and Fuzzy's!
awww I'm heartbroken now
I think he has to register the serial number on the site to get an online repair
Where are you guys located?
