Noises under the vehicle before start

Has anybody notice a weird noise under the car when the key is put in the ignition and then turned to the position that is before the car starts?

i have been noticing this for a while now but didnt think anything of it but i want to see if some of you guys have this. it kinda sounds like everything is engaging before the car starts.

My G does the same thing. Dealer told me it is the fuel pump and it is the way it should be.

It's the hamsters waking up from the little electric shot sent by the key, so they can start running in that wheel to turn the ignition.
