Default 05 caravan transmission humming?

I can hear a slight humming noise from my transmission whenever accelerating, shifts extremely smooth, oil seems brand new and at the correct level. It's an 05 caravan, first time dodge owner would this be normal for a dodge? most information i'm finding regarding issues of humming are to do with wheel bearings, or people saying the transmission is shot. I know for a fact the transmission is not gone it engages properly, shifts smooth, guess my question is this normal for a dodge?

Does the sound go away above 30 MPH? And does the sound get louder when turning the wheels slightly to the right or left?

Yes the sounds does go away at higher speeds, sound doesn't change when turning right or left. It might be a wheel bearing, if the sound increases more I will have it looked at.

Thanks
