See the following article for information on this particular error message.

I have heard of this error being recorded when a digital camera memory card
is being used accessed.

The "clicking" sound could be of more concern. You might want to run a hard
drive diagnostic tool, usually available from the hard drive manufacturers
websitew, to make sure you do not have a failing drive.

In either case, it would be a good idea to keep current backups of your
important data on removable media.
