From the sound of the drive, it appears that heads and/or media are bad. However, you can try the following: after loader loads, you should run 1) HDD ID reading (which it looks like you did) to make sure firmware number changes to end in 0, and 2) Run Initialize HDD/Initialize all which, if proper loader has loaded, will correctly ID the drive. You should try several loaders to see if you can reach this stage. At that point you can try to read SA. If unsuccessful with loader then try hotswap with same model.

You have to check head condition and fix SA
