Most of the Seagate harddisks are prone to make noise while working, sooner or later. Its not a problem. See a thread running about it here

many times it happens that the hdd start making noise after some time , as you said that you removed it and after that it started making noise..

These days mostly all hdd have shock protection , but then also many times they have a shock and the head position is hampered by a minor unnoticable distance , and the hdd starts making noise.. So its not a problem and you cant sort it out..
