Because any hint of a bad HD and i usually replace it myself anyway, so as not to lose anything important.
I think that the #1 thing to do (since you've had this trouble with the HD)...is DEFINITELY have a backup of anything important!
This is a good rule to follow whether you have a "possible" bad hard drive or not.
Good luck with the rest of the install,
