External HDD is making buzzing/clicking noise...
I bought a 1Tb external hard drive about 6 months ago, and I turned it on after not using it for awhile and it is making a loud buzzing noise. Originally, it would pick up the drive but it would say an I/O Error occurred and none of the data could be loaded/picked up. I tried it again today, and now it won't pick it up at all. I have all my music/photos/etc. from my old PC on there and I am wondering is there anyway to salvage the drive or is there any way I can get the data off of it and put it on a new HDD? Thanks in advance.

that is the hard drive (I even bought it from best buy!)

I don't have the receipt, but I am wondering if I could maybe get this taken care of through warranty?
