Ok, according to what you posted, it looks to me like your drive is in
very good shape. If you're hearing clicks now that you didn't hear
before, I'd say it's not because the drive is going bad. They're
probably caused by something else, but I have no clue what. If you're
concerned that the drive has problems, you can try running tests like:
smartctl -t short /dev/sda
and check again with:
smartctl -a /dev/sda |more
after the time interval needed to test, to see what the results are.

My laptop is 1-2 years old. I would be very upset if something would go
wrong with it.
Yet, I am clueless on what is causing these click sounds, sometimes
mixing with beeps on shutdown. And whether to leave it or be concerned
about it. And why this is happening when I try a Debian based distro?
