Can't help much - but wanted to reinforce your problem. I have the same model and it doesn't make a lot of noise. However, when I power it up and put a disc in, it causes my computer to run SUPER slow, and sometimes freeze up. The system I have it connected to is a P4, 3.06 ghz w/ a meg of RAM, so it can't be because of a underpowered system. Wonder if other people are having similar problems as you and I, and if anyone has found a fix.
