My PS5 is 4 months old and my fans have never been that loud. Not even when two have been on and running at the same time. Granted we weren’t playing disc games, but still… Fan noise shouldn’t be that loud
You know what, now that you mention it, you’re actually completely right. It’s the disc drive making that noise. The fans are loud, but tolerable, the disc drive is the loud one. Hot damn. I never actually put 2 and 2 together there, I just went and checked it after what you said, and yeah it’s the drive.
So, actually, I was totally wrong, and I highly doubt Sony is going to try to make the PS5P run discs, so that’s an interesting turn of events.

It’s less than six months old and has its own dedicated shelf… I did think to check that, but no, it came right out of the box being this loud.
Now that I think about it though, I haven’t seen any other PS5s in person to compare, so for all I know I just have a bad unit.
