    Hey everyone, just curious. I have a 40gb PS3 thats about 1.5 years old, and its making a constant "clicking" noise. When it first started, it was minor and i figured it was just being a little loud while loading. Now it is continuously making a light clicking sound, at about 8-10 clicks per second. This noise occurs constantly as long as the system is on. I think it might be the exaust fan, possibly loose or something. Does anyone have a good recomendation on what it may be or what to do? Thanks for any input.

    Could be your hard drive. My hard drive in my computer started to make clicking noises before it failed. Your case could be entirely different though.
