Re: Quieting the Xbox and Dreamcast

I've thought about this as well, especially with the Dreamcast. I'm not even sure what's causing most of the noise, is it the drive or the cooling system? I would assume the later could be replaced with some form of heatsink. It's mostly the laser drive assembly that's making the noise. If you coat...
