never happened to me yet but it is really loud and the disc drive makes an awful noise at times and stops abruptly lol.
Is Microsoft still sending out replacement 360's for that issue even if your OOW?

Mine had the 3 rings, they kept it for a month when I had it replaced, then the refurb they sent me started scratching discs but they wouldn't fix it, then the HD died and they took another 6 weeks to replace it, then about a week after my year warranty expired the disc drive quit spinning and they said that it would cost over $100 for them to fix (even though a quarter of the time it was under warranty it was down for repairs). I'm never buying another game system from microsoft.
