If it sounds like a scratching one, banging or thumping, then it is not normal. If it sounds like the platter rotating but noisy, it should be ok.

Hi ,
Thanks for the info. Apart from the hard disk rotating noise (which is very less when compared to other laptops), I could a feel a little friction noise (a creaking noise which is not continuous) which comes whenever the hard disk light blinks.
