If it was ticking/clicking and you couldn't power up, I would say it would be the power supply. Sometimes an inadequate power supply will cause the HD to click. Is everything else operating Ok? Is the ticking sound and the volume control the only problem?

    How old is the machine and HDD ? ?

    DLoad and run the drive maker's diagnostics from their website.

    It will tell you if that drive is failing.
