This is one of those occasions when you don't want to listen in case it's a familiar sound, but you can't resist.

It somehow reminds me of pinball sounds gone bad! But my hard drive is a lamb when it dies... or whatever a lamb sounds when it's killed.

Number 3 was funny...number 4 sounded fake. Why? Because I have a sharpening/grind stone in my garage, and it sounds like that when you sharpen something like a lawn mower blade.
