Grinding sound

Xbox 360

My powerbox for my 360 Slim is making a grinding sound. Yes I have cleaned out the fan.
Would I be able to use a HP laptop fan to replace it or should I just wait for the death of the powerbox?
like the power supply itself is making the noise?? I would just buy a new one from amazon or something.

The last time I got a game that was not a gift was the release of Halo ODST.
well the only thing I can suggest is gently spray some compressed air in it or purchase a new one. sorry bud.
I've had that happen twice over the years, and a replacement was ultimately needed (although I ordered mine through the xbox service site).

It'll start overheating and turning itself off as a precaution, as its condition worsens.
I would keep myself at a safe distance from it at all times in case it combust. If all else fails you could start a fundme to get some money or it seeing as they are relatively inexpensive. Make sure you make up a good sob story so people are more inclined to give you their hard earned dollars.
You can also try Pawn shops or online yard sales and such.
