    Yes probably. You might be able to improve things by taking the hard drive out of the Humax and formatting it in a PC (do a Full format not a quick format); then run chkdsk and see if there are any bad blocks reported. If there are not then the disk should be OK for a while (hard to say how long). IF there are or you don't want the hassle then fit a new drive which is straight forward.
