Zenpai Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Unless it's a portable system, any computer will always make some noise when working, so what you're asking for is pretty much magic. But yeah, I understand your pain, sometimes I too wish there were a way to make our consoles totally silent. EDIT: Never mind.

Zenpai Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Sorry, misread it as "turned on", not off. Anyway, don't have a PS4, so can't help you in that regard, though I never came across a console that still made noise while off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Don't put it in rest mode, turn it completely off. Or pull out the plug. Edited July 29, 2015 by MMDE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYuriG Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Is it really turned off or only on rest mode? It keeps running with low power on rest mode, that can be the reason of your issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crespelio-X12 Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 It´s not even a issue for me just a little disturbing but I can live with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simply ahri Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Is the area where your PS4 is well-ventilated? If it's making noise even in sleep mode it might be a sign that it's still trying to compensate/adjust for overheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DistantFox Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Start petting it and tell it that everything will be alright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshabug Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I have to deal with this. I have my system and other appliances plugged to a surge protector, that way all I have to do is flip the switch and the system/appliances shut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanError101 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 In rest mode the fan (when its on) and the hard drive will make a noise. However, even when turned off (not in rest mode), the power supply unit can make a very low level high pitch squeal. You may hear it if you put your ear to it, though some peoples hearing can be a little different to others. In the summer, the window is open, and the noise of the outside stops me hear it, but in the winter, the window is closed, and its all I can hear at night. I have to turn the PlayStation off at the plug, as I can hear it while I try to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Title says all it's a bit disturbing to sleep and hear it. Turn off charging USB while off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anturak Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Yer in rest mode it still runs the hdd and fans at a very low output. What you may be hearing is when it's fully powered down sometimes you get a little bit of coil whine or slight current still floating around the power unit. It happens on mobile chargers a lot when a phone isn't plugged in. It's pretty conmen among electronics but the only way to kill it is turn it off at the plug. Its not going to damage you're system so don't worry but if its super quiet it can be noticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
