Ok guys, I went into "Disc Utility" and when I click on the hard drive, this is what it tells me.

Is this pretty cut and dry that I need a new hard drive?

I have Passport external hard drive. What do I do with it when I replace the hard drive? I replaced this hard drive a few years ago and pulled it off so I assume I can do this again. I will no doubt be asking for help along the way. But what do I do with my Passport to assure it's safe?

The drive definitely needs to be replaced. Looks like it's a Seagate 1.5 TB. The Passport drive can be left alone right where it is unless you want to use it for something else. Don't forget to backup everything first.
