if you dont want to send your console into Sony, just get a new HDD. Probably can get a 160GB HDD for cheap. Plus this error doesn't happen half as often as other console's issues, its less then a fraction. Honestly what fanboys will try to spread.
Plus the 80GB HDD I have in my desktop right now is slightly faulty, this is why i bought a 160GB HDD for my main HDD and use the 80GB for program installs.
