Hard drive failure Options

[jutzy]

Hm, i have a hard drive and for some unknown reason its decided to die...well it is slowly dying.
its about half a year old... and some of my other hard drives are older than that...

what could cause it to fail in such a horrible way.

can i still save it (without the costly repairs)

what happens is ill be doing somthing and it will restart without warning... then it will proceed to tell me that there is a error loading opperating system.

ill power down my rig and then remove the sata plug and replace it back in... then reboot my machine, it then works untill the next crash.

there is no error codes associated with these crashes, just a random reboot.
