There is generally one moving part in a PSU that is the fan (clearly) unless it is  extreme coil whine (which I doubt), try re mounting it and see what happens but if it is the fan maybe try tightening the screws that hold it (safely and if you can).\

Otherwise you may have too RMA the unit.

I'd RMA it then because you do not want a faulty PSU. Better safe than sorry.

System: Thinkpad T460

Most likely the fan, could be a faulty bearing. See if you can get it RMA'd
