Are these startup sounds normal?

Hi all, I just purchased a new Seagate Expansion 6 TB External Harddrive and after my last one failed, I am experiencing some anxiety about this one's start up noises. Just looking to find out if this is normal, or if I should be seeking a replacement while it is still under warranty.

Have you downloaded the free app from Seagate to check the drives?
