For example, SMART data occasionally is wrong (I've seen a drive with 8000 alleged bad sectors that hasn't skipped a beat in normal operation, though if it was my drive I'd probably still not trust it!), event log errors could point to a dodgy cable or storage driver, I've explained drive noises already, and Windows not booting from a potentially suspect disk could have a million other reasons, but say if you have a machine that's unable to boot Windows and the drive makes dodgy clicks every time the system tries to boot, I'd be pretty confident that when I pull the drive and connect it to my own PC, it's going to act in a similarly dodgy manner.
When diagnosing a dodgy disk, I normally try to find multiple bits of supporting evidence. If you find some, do they coincide with the times of the dodgy disk noises? Also, if you find some, do they point at drive letters (or disk number, see 'Disk Management' app) corresponding to the dodgy disk?

I'd also look in the Windows Event Viewer (run eventvwr), go into Windows Logs > System (though 'custom views > administrative events is also helpful as it filters to show only warnings/errors, though even a brand new Win10 install is typically littered with warnings/errors of other sorts) and look for: Mildly suspicious: Drive is completely idle (according to Windows) and makes a seriously loud noise for no apparent reason. Often the whole system or at least dependent apps will stop responding normally when a disk misbehaves in this way. HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS: If there is a noticeable delay every time one of these clicks occurs (for example, while Process Explorer with elevated privs to monitor disk I/O, you're noticing a reasonably consistent I/O transfer rate, then a click occurs and the rate drops to zero for a good ten seconds or very likely a lot longer), then it's probably a dodgy disk. I'd probably consider the noises under the following conditions: Ticks and clicks are a problematic symptom for HDD diagnosis because using them as a diagnosis mainly relies on prior experience of how the drive normally sounds. I know what data access sounds which are continues unlike those ticks. The HDD operates silently if it was not for those ticks/clicks. The DVD drive which does not read any discs at all, keeps ejecting without me going near it. I do not know if this is connected to the HDD or not.

I have used HD Tune Pro and CrystalDiskInfo both and SMART reported "good" on both. The problem is I always used an A/C unit (which covered all ambient sounds), so I just noticed this now in the winter (no noise at all). Sometimes the drive does not click at all on reading.
It also does clicks (less frequent) when reading (something between 10-30 seconds. For example, the ticking happens every 3-15 seconds when I am downloading something. I have just noticed that the HDD makes an audible ticking sound when it is writing, mainly. Hello, I have had my laptop for over 5 five years.
