Default wheel bearing/axel shaft

So there has been a humming noise coming from my car when I drive it I thought it was the passenger wheel bearing so I replaced it and it hums a little less what else could the noise be?

Is it when you're turning, or going straight... Or both?

You can really hear the noise when I speed up then let off the gas

I think its coming from the front drivers tire area now and there is no vibrations. The car has a 152,000 miles on it. I just think the drivers side wheel bearing is bad too

Could be the wheel bearing, or power steering pump groaning.
