Hello mate, I can guest that your hard drive came with the Mac, right? So that would make it an OEM hard. Follow the link below to see what that implies.

Well, another Black Caviar 1 TB drive will cost you 100-150 euros, so in a way, that's cheaper than the 400 euros you would pay for the extended warranty. The Black Caviars are usually reliable (except for the 500 GB models). You can try again.
