Default Laptop noises

I apologize if this is an unanswerable question, but my laptop (that I love and am trying to keep running as long as possible) has started making four clicking noises when booting up. It doesn't make them if already running and I restart.

The noise doesn't seem to be deleterious so far since everything works fine but I'm a little concerned that it's a harbinger of Bad Things To Come. I'm wondering if it would be useful to take it in for repair and have them look under the hood to see if something is scraping or out of whack inside.

Or just leave well enough alone?
