The refrigerator has a very noisy evaporator fan.  During Operation, I can hear it in the living room.  For this day and age, I would expect the operating noises to be quieter, not louder.  

I have a call in to GE support.  If they tell me this is normal, I will not buy another GE appliance.  I wish we could have done a field test and selected the quietest one.  I am an HVAC Service tech, so I have an idea what is normal and what isn’t.  I hope they can make it quieter or it may be going out to the garage.
