Is your PS3 noisey on loading

Post by un1eash »

Just a quick one, does your PS3's blu-ray drive make a louder then normal noise when loading games. Only dose this when first loading and not during any games. Have heard some do it and some dont??

Cheers

The only time i've really noticed mine making a noise is when you load up a new game and it does the initial install to HD

My PS2 laser is worse. It's the laser/motor when the data required is scattered all over the disc and it's jumping around from inner to outer edge quickly (which would be more noticable when it has to dump xxx megs of data all at once)

* spent way to much time tweaking POT's on dying PS2 lasers with all the drive cover off and just the magnet holding the disc in place while its spinning
