To answer your questions...

- The noise is present regardless of any particular plugins being used and is slightly worse on PT load up when the HDD is working harder
- I have tested at three different residences so far and the results were the same
- I just switched out the 3rd Gen M-box for my old 2nd gen and there was no difference
- I tried several different drivers for the m-box and there were no changes
- I will have to wait to get a powered hub, but I unplugged my m-box, and the casing noise was still present
- I am not sure appliances such as electric motors or fridges are not in the circuit, however unplugging all these items does nothing to change the noise

Thanks Dan
