This is definitely your drive gone bad.

If the drive "makes funny noises" and I/O errors are logged, it has bad
sectors. Try with
# smartctl -a /dev/sda
and look for a line like this:
5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 036 Pre-fail Always - 0
If the last number is >0, your drive has problems - replace it!
For a full SMART check, please try:
smartctl --smart=on --offlineauto=on --saveauto=on --test=long /dev/sda
This tells your drive to make a long selftest. It prints the estimated
time for the test to run (usually 1-3h). Then check your smart values
again. You should try to not use your drive during this time.

It is possible the drive remapped the bad sectors itself.

Plug in new drive.
Boot from recovery cd
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb
