The hard drive needs to be replaced.  If performance is what you're after, go for a 2.5" solid state drive, not a conventional hard drive.

Expected life for drives depends on how you use it.

90 days is the basic warranty

extended warranty is 1 to 3 years.

There are only  3 makers of drives left in the world.  Western Digital, Seagate, and Toshiba.

Thanks for confirming that my HDD is almost dead :(.

SSD is out of my reach, just wanted to know, which will give me best IOPS out of the above 3.

Next best is a hybrid drive such as the Seagate solid state hybrid drives or the WD Black 2.
