fish HD death rattle

Switched on the old pooter today. No boot up, but ticking noise from within.

Clouted the (ticking) hard drive with a screwdriver, and all appears well..............................until I turn off maybe?

I'm backing up stuff to my networked PC, but is it possible to change the HD to a new one, and retain all the stuff on this one?

Words of one syllable please, a lot of chat on this forum goes way over me.
