my brand new TM nano oe box has recently started making a loud noise when first turned on , but after a few hours it goes back too normal .
should i return it as faulty or is this a common problem with these box`s

Can you check if it is the fan? Only moving part apart from HDD.
yes it is the fan , apparently technomate fitted them the wrong way around , the sponsors asked me too turn it around , which i have done but it still sounds really loud.
so they are sending a replacement and i will try that but from what others have said, the fan part is really cheap and buying a better quality one fixes the issue .
I had the same problem and the sponsor sent me a replacement fan - great aftersales service I have to say. you can actually turn the fan off its only needed if you have a hard rive installed.
Does replacing the fan make it really quiet.
I have the fan in mine as I have a HDD in it.
Was contemplating taking out the hdd so I could disconnect the fan.

My Nano is setup in a bedroom and the fan makes almost no noise, even though i run the fan cranked upto three quarters for live use and half for standby.

SIMPLES.
I installed a quieter fan in mine but I eventually took it and the internal hard drive out and replaced with an external drive, the box randomly comes out of standby even though there are no timers or jobs set and it was constantly waking me during the night, the box still does loads of random sh*t but at least I no longer hear it.
going to wait for the replacement fan and see how that goes , if there is not a significant decrease in the sound of the fan then i will send box back as its not fit for purpose in this condition. but i really like the box so hope new fan is a lot quieter.
can confirm the replacement fan is silent , i had to go right up too box to make sure it was actually working .
thanks sponsors - excellent customer service .
