Don't open the drive, open the computer case! The point is to identify the drive unambiguously, which is not easy if there are several drives mounted next to each other. If you have the drive identified, that part's done. I have had 3 or 4 WDC drives go bad with the symptoms you mention. All but one had periods of operation after being shut down completely (power removed) for a while.
