Looks like the Update preview did fix my noise issue, too. Pretty awesome.
EDIT: Wait, it's still making noise, nevermind. Unless it hasn't installed yet, my status is 'EnrollPending' apparently.
Yeah you should get the update soon.

They probably don't want to guarantee the Oct update will fix it for everyone, just in case it doesn't
Someone should measure power consumption in various points of operation to see if they're just running the system hotter.
Got my replacement Xbox beack today (new one, no repair). Still got the problem, thanks, Microsoft -_-
Bought my nephew a kinect-less Xbox one a couple weeks ago. It had a gnarly coil whine out of the box and for the first couple days. After that, it magically stopped and has been silent. Not sure what happened, but I'm glad it worked itself out!
The October update may have been updated and applied in that time which can fix it in some cases it would seem
That's only if you're in the preview beta though, right? He most definitely is not. Unless there was a mini patch before the big patch hits?
When does the actual october patch release? I bought my Xbone 12 hours ago, just set it uo and its making the noises. Hoping the update will fix it, instead of having to send it in.
If its a flaw in all the kinectless units whats the point?You won't have to send it in if you bought 12 hours ago, take it back and exchange it.

Sorry, I was under the impression it was a majority of units. Ill most likely just go exchange it then, thanks for the advice!I'm not sure if there's a definite flaw, my Xbox One doesn't have Kinect and it's fine.

Edit: Just set up the new one, so much quieter. The guy tried to tell me every Xbox makes that noise and I was wasting my time.
Also fixed the noise issue for me!
Haven't experienced any extra fan noise though. Is this only during gameplay?
Pretty sure mine does this too. Not sure if it's normal though.Just picked up the SS Overdrive bundle and while there is no loud coil whine I'm hearing a faint scratching noise. Sounds like the console is constantly reading the harddrive. Anyone hearing anything similar?

This was the noise I had when I got a launch xbox, I'm taking it that is different (sounds it in the videos), still wonder if that could've been fixed by software update but damn it got loud as soon as I launched a game.
