I wonder if it's possible for them to have an update for 360s that would allow the user to select the maximum speed the dvd drive can spin at. It would allow people to pick the best noise/speed ratio that they could live with.

doubtful, programmers(especially with limited space, and no gauranteed h/d) have to be able to rely on a constant disc speed for read times and data loading.

Hopefully they can get it together with the reliability issue, my buddy has gone through two units, luckily one of them was under warranty at least. I never bother using this as an argument against MS anyways, anyone who buys brand new hardware without an extended warranty is asking for it. I got 4 extra yrs on my PS3 ;)

I may end up having to get one of these too(hiding my face in shame) if Fable 2 or Blue Dragon hold up to expectations. LOL
