I may take it to the store to have it tested if it makes the noise there. Any ideas what this noise is would be appreciated.

take the belt off and see if it still grinds while the belt is off check to see if the bearings on the pullys are loose ... the fact that it goes on and off could be the a/c clutch... watch it to see if the grinding starts when the clutch turns on
