So I just installed a new Seagate Ironwolf Nas 8TB into my PC, and it is making these rattling noises when something is being downloaded onto it. You can listen to the sound here: https://sndup.net/3qxv

Is this something I should be worried about? Thanks for any help.

the hosting site of your audio file is being blocked/flagged as unsafe by my AV, so, most will likely pass on listeninng to it.

I will say that hard drives do indeed make a sort of 'scratching' noise (like a mouse crawling up inside a steel pipe?) when writing/reading, some more than others, and, it can be noticeable if the rest of your system is very quiet.....
