Is it normal to hear an scraping sort of sound when moving the trackball in any way?

Sounds like you may need a blast of air.

I second that. Probably have debris behind the ball. If that doesn't work then you will have to take the ball out and clean it.

I wouldnt take it out unless you know how to do it. It contains fragile pieces. I had the scraping noise on my pearl, and it just seemed normal. didnt bother me.
