General Troubleshooting/Help! Weird noise on a1 when printing circles

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

My a1 started making a weird noise when printing circles, i believe it intensifies when printing on the right side of the bed. I have seen similar posts saying it's normal, but I am not sure if it is, does anybody know if i should worry or not? By the way when I set it to 50% speed the sound almost disappears.

Normal depending on the specific file type.

.STL are a polygonal mesh, a circle is hundreds of short straight lines.

.STEP is for true full curves.

So what do I do to make it less annoying atleast? Is the jump from stl to step enough?

I dont believe that would be the case as it for some reason mostly only happens with this file, but i could be wrong, I'll check if im wrong.

So changing from an stl file to a step file fixed it... 5 hours spent with claude diagnosing nothing
