Well, what I planned to do was ask for suggestions on replacements, but then I already ordered one as I was writing the topic, and I just rewrote it and didn't consider that I could put it in the Away/Back topic instead.

Some 1TB 7200RPM 32MB Cache Seagate. Was on a sale for 50$, so I thought I might as well.

well at least its Seagate, not that its some Wal-Mart brand. If you hav a second Hdd you can dual boot to a second OS, and if the first Hdd goes belly up, then use Hirens boot disc to load the second OS. No time wasted offline.

Well you know you can boot into Linux in Live mode without an HDD.
