I've just bought a Netgear FS728TLP-100EUS 24-port smart switch from Amazon UK. Soon as I plugged it in it started making a loud clicking noise - the fan ramped up for a couple of seconds but when it died down, there is still a loud clicking noise. I plan to store it in my office room for next few months and then move it to a comms room when I move to my new house. Noise won't matter when it's in the comms room in new house, but for now the noise is way too loud to tolerate in my office room.

Is a switch like this supposed to make noise? It sounds like it just isn't right. I live in Ireland so it'll be a pain to return it to Amazon so I wanted to get thoughts before I do. I haven't set it up yet (to avoid issues with returning), don't suppose noise settles down once it's setup?
