          Unfortunately the hard drive has got to is sell by date, it will die soon! so get anything on it that you want back it all up because when the clicking starts its only a matter of time.

                  How about a sata connection?

                          sounds like its dead to me you could try putting it in the freezer for a while in a sealed plastic bag and connect it while its cold you might get lucky...
