i got CSOD(Clicking Sound Of Death) on my HDD too. the freezing thing didnt work for me if i would do that i would try it for a week or soemthin then take it out. what worked for me was throwing the drive like a frisbee but not actually letting it go. hold the drive like you would a frisbee and pretend your going to throw really try and get a flinging motion in your wrist at the end i did that a few times and was able to recover 30% before it would die again and then i would unplug start waving it around in the air really hard or pretend like im throwing a frisbee and got another 30% or so i only got about half the info off the drive the rest i didnt care about just music and crap but give it a shot. hitting it slightly on a table worked as well. be careful tho its a magnetic disk your dealing with too much force and its gone so just enough like cracking a egg someone mentioned earlier.
