Does anyone else (who owns an XBOX 360) have this problem?
The console itself is fine but the fan makes a grinding sound. I'm going to have to replace it or something inside the power supply will probably blow up. |

did you break any hardware inside it by chance?
could be malfunctioning hardware or it might just be really dusty |

"did you break any hardware inside it by chance?" nah it seems to be a pretty common problem, Microsoft must have used really cheap fans and that's why they're starting to fail after 6 years of use
I will probably add an external fan which will cool the PSU better than it did when it was brand new. |

""after 6 years of use" okay seriously i bought it in 2010 but i haven't really used it since 2012
btw guys i modded the fan after a lot of dremel work and oh my god it works like a charm
it's never been this quiet and cool (no pun intended)
before the mod, the PSU would literally get hot enough that if i touched it, it would give me a first degree burn. |

btw here's the image of the final result

yes, i know it's missing one screw, but i couldn't find it and the fan is secure enough anyways
it essentially takes all of the hot air and blows it out |

but yeah the original cooling design for this power supply is just complete garbage it uses some tiny cheapo fan that stops working if dust gets in it |
