sounds like you need a new hdd.

one the noise is new
two the hdd was stock in older 2009 or 2008 machines so it may be too old. I will find you a link on how to put in a new one

http://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/mac_mini_2009_hd/ if it is the 2009 model



wiki links shows the newest 120gb mac mini was in 2009 also shows the 2006 to 2008 had 120gb hdds.
