If your hard drive is making clicking noises it means it's going to die really soon so make sure that back up is up to date, not much else you can do about it now though.

I don't know if you are sticking to a certain manufacturer or trying a few, i haven't found any that I like all the time, western digital seems to be okay at the moment.

1 month seems pretty quick, and if you've had that many drives go you may want to check on other factors, see how much heat is accumulating on the drive, if you have it fairly cramped in there that may be causing the drives to die early, or if it's just really warm in the room you have it in.
