I just bought a Belkin F5D8055 today and it is working fine, however it is causes my computer to make a buzzing sound, like there is some sort of electromagnetic interference. There isn't a speaker in my case so I'm not sure what is actually making the noise. It is coming from inside of the case, and not from the USB device itself, but it stops when I unplug it and it starts back the moment I plug it back in. It is an electrical buzzing sound, and my dad's computer speakers make the exact same noise constantly. It gets louder when data is being transferred on the net. My power is running through a UPS.

Any ideas what is wrong and how to fix it?
 
I have now verified that the sound is coming from the PSU. If I put my ear next to it I can hear it even when the Belkin USB adapter is unplugged, but plugging it in makes it loud enough that I can hear it when seated.
