Weird sounds from my MacBook Hello. My MacBook has started making a very strange high-pitched noise from the left side. It occurs especially when the temperature is higher and doesn’t go away. Can anyone help me diagnose the problem? https://youtu.be/MtBhKMqrJiE

My MacBook Pro making strange noise when it runs on battery power I have a problem on a MacBook pro 16, M1 pro. When my MacBook is loaded (after about 40W), a strange (similar to white) noise appears. These are definitely not fans, I checked through the programs. It (noise) comes from approximately between the right side of the touchpad and the keyboard. This only happens when running on battery power. Just in case, I'll add that I've already had problems with charging: the laptop connects and disconnects cyclically if it's in a certain position, or it doesn't connect at all, but I don't think it's related.
