i'm used to flash HD's like the nanos.

Is it normal to feel and hear the HDD like on my MacBook?
If not how can this happen on an iPod that i got on the 11th?

Yeah, I hear mine every now and then when it spins up to transfer data to the RAM. Same on my 3 year old 3G too, I wouldn't be worried.

With such a large HDD in such a small container I'd be worried if I couldn't hear it.
