A loud ckunking sound huh..... sounds like the drive is dead. I haven't heard 
a sound like that since the old seagate st-251. I don't expect that you will 
be able to get anything off the drive at this point unless you want to spend 
some big bucks to a data recovery service. reminds one to make backups on a 
regular basis, which I do hop you have done.
