Hello,
A little while ago my HDD "died", and, well now it's time to repair it.

I checked out what the hardrive had with CrystalDiskInfo and here are the results http://img690.imageshack.us/f/harddriveinfos.jpg/

So : Reallocated Sectors Count, Current Pending Sector Count and Uncorrectable Sector Count are faulty apparently, now the big question is, how do I fix that ? Is it fixable ? And if it is, will I get my data back ?

Any help will be MUCH MUCH appreciated.

Rather than fixing a hard drive, which is almost always impossible, you should get a new drive and either

1) Restore your backups of what was on the old drive, or
2) Get one of the many fine utilities that previous posters have mentioned to scan the decaying remains of the original drive and recover whatever files can still be salvaged. Clonezilla comes up frequently in this context.

Good luck
