Inspiron 8600 Failure

The system will stay on for about a half-hour at a time, not enough to back up my entire hard drive. I replaced the fan, but still have the same problem. The error message indicates hard drive failure, but the hard drive seems to be intact when re-started after a rest. Any suggestions?

    The hard drive is indeed failing.  It's showing only when it warms up, which is not uncommon.
    Replace the drive.
