Not sure if it's common but mine has the same whine and have been told it will still last for ages so shouldn't be an issue.

Whine off power usually pinion bearings. once they whine, they wear out a lot faster, mainly due to the metallic grinding paste the bearings make while chewing themselves up. This also trashes clutch plates and all other bearings and moving parts.
