Hey, alright please don't sperg out if I'm an idiot but I don't know a huge amount about computers and could use some help.

A few months ago my hard drive died, and I had to replace it. Just now, I was doing some light internet browsing, and my laptop running Windows 10 bluescreened, telling me I had a "whea_uncorrectable_error." It started back up fine, except the some part of it was making a sound like a geiger counter, I think the hard drive. As I was typing this, it stopped being quite so fast but it's still making that sound once every few seconds.

Am I fucked?

Yes you're hard drive is hanging by a thread . Save any important things from it to USB is you can and prepare for the HDD to die . The clicking sound means that this arm looking thing is hitting the disc itself .

Shit. Thanks. Why do you think I'm continually having hard drive problems with this laptop? It's an HP, if that makes a difference. I've only had this hard drive for maybe a month and I have not worked this boy hard by any means. The sound has stopped now, but I don't know if it's going to start again.

Because my HDD has been making those sounds excessively for like 3 years now.
