If you keep your data backed up, then reloading your windows operating system once per year is enough to refresh its running speed and clear out the malware.  :D :D  :D

Another plus, if it is in warranty, it lets you upgrade to the next drive because almost for certain, that drive won't be available as a replacement.  Some stores have that insurance plan for $18 to allow replacement at the store.   If you know it will fail, that could be one way to get an upgrade for free albeit with some trouble from backups.  :D

Wow, it's been years since I used smilies.  But I happen to think this is a particularly humourous way to get a new drive.

you got the warranty wrong, if you go to the shop and file a warranty, they'd patch you to the main company and they'd ship you a 50-50 refurbished drive.

Unless you get the no-fault option which is hardware replacement at the Fry's store without the need to wait.  Granted, it's not something available to everyone.
