My 360 sometimes sounds like it's scratching the disc. Is this normal?

Sometimes when a game starts spinning in the drive or stops spinning it makes a weird sound like it's scratching. Is this normal?The games look fine and are not damaged, but the sound is horrible even though it only lasts for a couple seconds it sounds like the console is about to die

Should I be worried that my 360 is going to be bricked or is this just a byproduct of a cheaply made console adn I shouldn't worry about it breaking?

Use some canned air and blow it out... I had this happen on and off for a few months before my drive imploded.

good luck

My 360 also makes a kind of a buzzing noise sometimes, but it sounds the same as PC-drives so I'm not really worried about that.

What I have been meaning to ask for a long time is, everytime I turn on my 360 it makes this odd noise for 3 times. It does it literally everytime and the 3 screeks come one after another like clockwork. Is it normal? Do you guys have any sounds when you turn it on? I think it is the disc-drive or the fans "waking up", because if I turn off my 360 while it's charging the controller and then turn it back on, it doesn't make the sounds. While it is charging, the fans and the drive(?) are still running so they don't need to "wake up", and hence no sound then.
