Default I can hear my HDD

So, just as the title says, I can hear my HDD. I just got it, literally today and I can hear a very small amount of noise when it is working. My last HDD was absolutely silent (at least I couldn't hear it over the fans).

Is it normal for a hard drive to make a bit of noise (kind of scratchy background kind of thing, hard to explain)? It is not clicking or making an excessive racket or anything. I just want to make sure it's OK.

Thanks
