so I apologise if it has already been covered to death. Can someone 
please help me understand how Dumbledore's original arrival in 
Private Drive was silent, when all other cases of 
apparition/disapparition is heralded by a noise?

I have also searched for a long time and have another question.  
Although it is more speculation I guess.  I have been rereading OOTP 
american version.  On page 446 Hagrid is talking about thestrals.  It 
has been said many times by Hermione that "I read it in Hogwarts a 
history....."  "You can't Apparate on hogwarts grounds".  Yet on page 
446 of OOTP Hagrid says "Course this lot don't get a lot of work, its 
mainly just pullin' the school carraiges unless Dumbledoor is takin' 
a long journey an' don't want to apparate--an' here's another couple, 
look--"

So if we go under the assumption that Dumbledoor is using the 
Thestrals for long trips from Hogwarts then apparantly Apparating is 
happening on Hogwarts grounds.
