physical shock, you may have damaged the disk drive.

You should back up your files as soon as possible.
Make sure the source of noise is indeed from the hard drive
and not the fan or other devices.
The hard disk drive has reached its capacity
Archive files or programs that you had no longer used by
moving them to an alternative storage medium (card reader,
etc.) or uninstall programs that are no longer used.
Many browsers store files in the hard drive as a cache to
speed up the performance. Check the program’s Online Help
for instructions on decreasing the cache size or on removing
temporary Internet files.

Interrupt requests or problems with other hardware devices
may have occupied the CPU and therefore slows down the
system performance.
