I just bought this new 20 inch ULTRA IDE cable to replace my ugly grey cable. I noticed that when I start up my pc, it makes a different noise... is this normal with a new IDE cable? thanks in advanced!
 
hmm idk its hard to explain. Its just different than how it used to sound... is that normal? Kind of like if u were charging a laser or somthing in a video game.... idk.
 
it sounds cooler lol, as long as my PC doesnt blow up, im happy. (the cables is also UV reactive, yay!) Im keepin it :D
 
MIGHT be that your ribbon was blocking airflow to one of your fans, causing it/them to work harder, and now it's clear, can get around the rounded IDE cable much easier. also, as stated, check to make sure the cable's not touching anything. if all else fails, see if the noise continues when you take off the side of the case. if it does, try to locate the sound with your ear... that is where your difference is :) cheers!
