You mean the disc-drive is noisy?
A disc game isn't installable no, only a digital game can be fully installed on the HDD.
There's not realky much you can do, if you think it's abnormally noisy then return it for a refund/replacement.

The noise you're hearing is the fan. the angle of the fan blades makes the PS3 have a high pitched whine to it when it gets above a certain temperature... the fan itself isn't at full speed, but the pitch of it makes it seem loud.
Its also common for fast action games, for the Super Slim to have such noise because A LOT of stuff is going on and the PS3 has to process all of it and such and that means its works harder, which means its gets a little warmer.
Its a trade off, and nothing you should really worry about.
The cooler you can get your room to be, the cooler the PS3 is going to run. Its something like 65*F right now here in Florida.... ALL of my windows are open in my house. And man does it feel GREAT.
My Super Slim is very happy as well since its SILENT. The only thing I hear is when the BD-ROM drive spins up the disc, and thats only because I got really close to it
Mine are open too, its beautiful isn't it!
