what does it mean when my drive fails the quick drive test and complete drive test?

how do i fix this?

my drive was just making a clicking noise. well finally the clicking noise stopped and i was barely able to recover my data.

wtf!?

That means that the drive --is-- failing, if I were you, I’d contact WD for a replacement.

Hope it helps.
