See what that pics up. I think it could be needing a return on the drive, if so this utility will tell you and the full process takes about 1-2 weeks

If it brakes before you can get your data back, put it into a water tight bag, and stick it in the freezer for 45 mins, then it will work for about 20 mins before you have to freeze it again.

Disabled S.M.A.R.T for the time being.

The PC is working fine and I have backed up all I need too!
