    Hiya guys n' girls

    I have need your wealth of knowlage!

    My pc has recently had HDD issues, my main HDD loaded with XP pro has been intermittantly cutting out and resuling in the dreaded BSOD...lovely stuff

    I can here the HDD itself spin down and then attempt to spin back up again, sometimes it manages to kick back in but more often than not it fails resulting in the BSOD.

    I have backed up all my files on my 500Gb secondary drive made a complete image of my system drive (250Gb) using Image For Windows.

    I have run SpeedFans S.M.A.R.T utility and the results are shown bellow:-

    Think i should replace it or splash out for a new Hard drive?

    And if a new drive what should i get?


    Thanks : )
