I have already sent in the first playstation that i bought because it was broken when i bought it. Not the seccond one is making a LOUD humming/vibrating noise. Has anyone ever had this problem?


Also, can you save your game data on a USB device if i have to send in my ps4 to sony?

Yes, they almost all do this, it is normal. Just the disc drive spinning up, it should stop after 5 secs or so.

Game data is backed up in the cloud, so no need to do that, assuming you have PS+.

So does the noise just come and go? When will it stop? It wasnt ever makimg the noise before and now it is making the noise every time that i start it up and it wont stop until i move the playstation arround/tap on the top ofte game system.

Take your hard drive out and screw it back in, it could be loose/unseated that is one fix for it.

If not, it should stop after the disc drive spins up which is 5-15 secs or so, not having to touch or do anything.

Pop the lid off the top and see if that's what it is. The glossy cover slides off the left.

Adding pictures doesn't even bring me into neutral territory? Tough critic.

Yeah it shouldn't be like that, for me it's just when I boot up the system/game. If you are having to hit your playstation (which I don't know why you would in the first place) then something is wrong.
