When it makes strange noises it is most probably a mechanic problem which can't be repaired. The only part of hard drives that can be repaired is replacing the electronics board. But that is usually more expensive than buying a new drive and makes only sense when you need to get some data from the drive.

I suggest to replace it immediately.

If you need to rescue data don't power it any more (plugout power and SATA connectors) and install a new drive. You may then connect the old drive it to another system and use a disk imager to create a low level copy of the drive. This might be transferred to the new drive but with the risk of already existing data corruption. The safe method would be installing your system from scratch. You can then mount the image and try to restore data.

When not using a disk imager you can also try to reconnect the disk and copy the data. But this will stress the drive more than using a disk imager.
