Imac 21.5 mid 2011 loud noise when starting

Hello everyone,


the noise is very loud and it sounds like two separate shots from a machine gun. It's even scary if you have the speakers on. After starting it runs smoothly as it always did, and i run Logic Pro on it intensively, it shows no problem whatsoever with the hard disk nor with the 4 RAMs.


Here it is:

I have attached a video of the sound.



Can anyone help please?
