That power supply is noisy. We ordered a few accidentally when mixing up the part number. We use the SP-320-48

Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

It appears that he replaced the stock power supply SE-600-48 ($75) with an HLG-600H-48A ($170), but Aaron @ FAST says that is noisy? The stock one has a noise rating of 200mVp-p and the replacement is rated at 250mVp-p

It is possible be that the specific power supply in question is just needing replacement and is EXTRA noisy.

What I found with the SE-600-48 is that the fan would get louder when it was under active use. Switching power supplies don't love a pinball environment right out of the box. This is why we created the FAST Power Filter Board, so that off the shelf HV switching supplies would be happier in a pinball machine. The SP-320-48 we use is what Stern uses in some of the Spike machines I have seen.

Quoted from Atlgills:

I used one of these for input power and one for output power. They supplied a good solid termination for the wires since this model didn't have the wire terminals built on the power supply like the noisy one did. It comes with pig tales and bare wires. The HLG-600H-48A is built for LED system power and has an RC dimming capability that you are not used in this application.

Be sure to cover that terminal block w/ AC coming in. Don't want to accidentally drop a screw or other bare metal object across it. The results are shocking!
