first of all, is your console modded?

er, guess no one will kill you for a modded console .
worst come to worst , you will not get support / help from the forum, i guess ^^

okay, as for as i know, here is the root cause
media issue - bad/poor media will resulting the drive give extra juice to read the disc, so it will give louder noice to read those discs

modded console's firmware- depend on the configuration of the firmware, since the firmware will 'tell' or force the console to read only at certain speed. So higher speed reading = louder noise

Guess this all i able to share and please correct i am wrong. Hope this will allow you to understand your console better
