If you click and drag the files into the flash-drive file, then yes. If you copy and paste the items onto the drive, then no.

Does formating affects computer?
If you format your hard drive, you will likely erase all your data. Sometimes formatting is necessary to reinstall Windows and whatnot. Just make sure you back up everything before you reformat, because everything on your computer will be GONE after you do it! ...Unless you're just formatting a flash drive or MP3 player, then you just lose everything on that particular device. Again, make sure you backup first.
What can be saved following a computer crash?
There are computer services out there who can retrieve data from your harddrive, if the system is totally gone and you have not reformatted the drive. If the computer just went down, and you can get it to come up again, the document you were working on may either be gone or just partially gone, depending on the last time you saved. Everything else should be okay.
Never Forget A Flash Drive?
A flash drive is one of those useful USB tools that allows you to save all important files on your computer. This can be extremely handy in the sense that it can save your entire file system from being destroyed in the event of a virus strike on your computer. Millions of people lose every file on their system: homework, budgeting tips, letters from relatives, etc. Every file is gone. There’s nothing that can bring them back. A flash drive can end this kind of nightmare for everyone. They come in various storage sizes that allow people to save a little or a lot. Depending on the amount of information you have on your computer, you’ll need a large flash drive to store everything. Everything should be stored in folders on the drive in an organized way that allows you to easily find all your pictures, videos, and documents with no trouble. A flash drive plugs into a USB port. Once there, you can store any file on your computer on the flash drive folders. You create names for the folders, ones that will properly represent the contents inside the folder. For example, pictures might be labeled simply pictures, or you may choose to store all pictures by category, for example family pictures or personal pictures. This kind of organization makes it a snap to find the files you need later on. If you have to restore your computer and you lose all of those important files, all you need to do is first do your restore and then add all of the files on your flash drive back onto your computer. It will have completely preserved all those important files and let you re-add them onto the computer in a few simple steps. Dropping and dragging works well or copying and pasting work just as well. As long as you have this handy backup of all your files, you’ll be able to enjoy the kind of security you deserve. Even if your computer crashes for good, you’ll always have your pictures, videos, and text documents to add to your next computer. There won’t be anything at all that is forever lost.

Sorry to tell you, but your computer isn't recognizing the drive because your drive is dead. You have to buy a new hard drive and an operating system or a whole new computer. That ticking is a clear sign that the drive is dying, if the bios does not even see it, then at that point its already gone.
