Began with some programs slowing down... then system slow down... then the extra partition stopped working... then my warrant wore out, then it broke =D
(with a beautiful damage inside... Glad to have backed everything up!)
Well, if you say so
I'd normally only get rid of a HDD if I heard unusual noises coming from it or they stop booting (I still have two of them, a WD 60GB and some old IBM one that's about 10GB).
Anyway, you might want to also use
CCleaner before defragmenting, which helps clear useless files off your PC and speeds things up a bit.
