Okay There is a wired noise and it is very very annoying.
Thank you, you can try to fix it (maybe not possible, evaluate it)
If you see its full of dirty, you can clean it with patience with a brush and put some drops of olive oil in the axis of the fan to run smoother and with no noise. IF this doesn't work you can allways buy a new one ;)

This is not for your specific model but it will be pretty much the same steps. Get a replacement and your golden.

Is it a clicking/ ticking noise?
No and no and no
Can you describe the noise? Most of the time those sounds you are hearing are your hard drive failing or about it is about to fail.
Look at what kind of hard drive you have (Seagate, Western Digital, Toshiba...)
Take a look at this once you find out your maker.

If you have these sounds then it's your hard drive.
It keeps changing but it isn't a clicking/ ticking noise.
