My HDD Noise

Okay. So I just put all my parts into a Rosewill Prism S, right? Fans are kinda loud but whatever. My problem is suddenly my 4tb hard drive has decided to make loud "scratchy" sounds when its under load. I'm hoping its just the Hard drive sitting on bear metal rather than failing.

Just here for some fun.

Pull it from it's mount and see if it still makes noise.  You should back it up or copy the files off now....

Actually, I just used Crystaldiskinfo to record the noise. It didnt give me any warnings. So under load it sounds like this (it gets worse near the end)

 

And When its just on standby it makes like a rhythmatic ticking. Same spacing, same noise, same volume.
