Backstory
I have been having problems in the past week accessing my 2nd hard drive ( D: ) where it disappeared from "my computer" and I couldn't access it. After trying many fixes and checking the connections I managed to get it working again... Now a few days later the problem is back but worse.
The problems
1. Every 2~ min my computer beeps. (mobo speakers, exactly the same kind of beep as POST) I read on google the beep could be related to fan speeds being under 800RPM, however I am unsure if that really is the problem, or if this is at all related to my other problem. Here's a screenshot showing fan speeds in hwmonitor:

2. I once again cannot properly access my D drive. I can open it in my computer and view the folder indexes with all of my file names listed, but it takes AGES to load anything. (im talking like 1min for 1 kb text document) I tried backing up the stuff I need to C:/ but the the transfer was going incredibly slow so I stopped it for now.
In addition to that I am getting "Error: Check: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)" in uTorrent. I've looked up that problem and tried to run a chkdsk on D:/, which failed. Here is the screenhot of that, hopefully someone can make sense of the checkdsk results as I can't.

I'm not sure if the 2 problems are related or not, or what to try next which is why I'm here. Please can anyone with some insight help me out?
I can post all logs / screenshots that are required.
thanks
