    think its best you contact your supplier as dont think that is right.
    videoing the sound and posting on here will give everyone a better idea but if its louder than your laptop fans thats not good at all.

    I heard it once that it happened because the earthing was not so good.I have a barely audible one from the power supply.But not as loud as you described.

    Not normal at all, have it replaced by the manufacturer.
