i have been facing lots of issues lately

today while playing ac black flag the game was freezing frequently lasting 10 15 seconds
the last time it happened, pc crashed to bsod .. after reboot i heard some kinda noise from hard drive .. it was repeating over and over again and went away after few minutes
it was like a clicking sound followed by a beep (beep was like the disk spinning really fast for 1 sec)

is it my hard drive ? it is pretty old .. i purchased it back in 2013
but if its my hard drive then why does the problem occur only while playing games ? ..



OTHER ISSUES I FACED -

bsod in injustice 2 beta .. it happened during matchmaking loading screen

crysis 1
*frequent random freeze lasting 15 to 30 seconds
* fps drops from 60s to 15 fps for same amount of time (this one happened in cs go too but only once)
