Arrived today, but Xg1v4 is very loud, bad fan bearings?

[Schmiggyjk]

I recently upgraded to a the 4k arris ax014anm and I presume this is a reconditioned device, which is fine.

However that fan seems abnormally loud,and from what I am told,these should be nearly silent when they are properly working, as these are SSD drives.

It's noticable enough that at 6-7 ft away I can hear it on my couch.

Are there different models of the xg1v4 that don't do this? Do I need a replacement just for this one?Any help would be appreciate.

And I just wanted to note, it's in a very open entertainment center, near no warm/hot devices. And it's pretty cool in my basement. So this is not ambient temp related IMHO.

I have three v4's and they are all silent (a rumor says they are solid-state).  Swap yours out.
