At some point, the drive could have gotten too hot, or been knocked. You could also try cooling the drive if it gets too hot. Also try it on a different computer and see if you get the same results. If you don't then its something to do with your computer.
I got some solution for it, so I'll copy paste it here too, in case someone still have this problem (i saw that alot of people had it, but almost none had a solution, exept buying a new one)
actually it was exactly how I though it is, the folder in which I had all the kernel sources apparently had problems (idk, corrupted? but they were still working, but slowly) and whenever I tried to access them, the HDD would go nuts. Now that I renamed it to Windows.old and I deleted it with Disk Cleanup, the HDD is running smoothly (for now). I just tested error checking and its still going, so I'll keep it updated, since I saw many people had this problem, but they couldn't figure it out how to fix it.
edit: aparently it fixed something:
https://pastebin.com/UF2vXd37edit2: 4 of the folders are still there, trying to delete them. They seems to be the faulty ones (or at least a small part of them)
edit3: rmdir them, for now they go away 1 by 1
