It is all in all very quiet.

My only complaint is access does not seem as fast as it should, compared to a DVD solution, but it's not bad.

I still wish I could figure out why it RANDOMLY decides to take its sweet time "Starting Navigation." The DVD-based Lexus was always (literally) instant-on.
If you think the new HD systems are slow then you have never used to old DVD based systems. I have been super impressed by the new speed. I swear the back up cam in my 07 was useless. If I started the car, messed around then I could actually use it. Otherwise I would be driving forward before it would kick in.... I think the HD systems work quite well
