A few months ago I had to restore my laptop back to its factory settings because I kept logging on, only to be greeted by a series of "application failed to run" pop up boxes. After I restored the laptop back to factory settings and wiped the drive of all things that were mine, everything seemed to be good except for one thing.... Intel Rapid Store Technology (a software on my laptop) gave me an error saying that my SATA disk on controller 0: Port 0 had failed. Now at first I just dismissed this as probably a fluke or something but today, I turned on my laptop only to have to totally freeze on me (except for the mouse on the screen). This happened twice. After the 2nd time, the error from intel finally popped up. Now... although I don't want to acknowledge it (since it's only been 4 months since bought this laptop for $3k), a little voice at the back of my head is shouting harddrive failure. So the question is: should I, or Should I not bring in my laptop to a service shop to get it checked (I have a warranty on it). If not, what do you guys suggest? Thank you!
