Your fan is worn out.  The fan should be almost silent, and nothing
else on the fridge makes any noise at all.  Fridgemate makes a fan
that is an excellent replacement for the original, costs around
$30.  Some people use miniature box fans such as computers use, but
they are much noisier and normally use a lot more juice for the same
amount of air.  The draw of the original and the Fridgemate
replacement fans is about 60 milliamps.
