Hi:
I would have to say that the hard drive in there is no good, and needs to be replaced.
Here is the service manual where you can find the hard drive removal and replacement procedure.

There is a funky adapter that comes off the hard drive, so don't throw it out with the bad drive.
You need to replace it with a regular 2.5" SATA hard drive and plug the HDD adapter back onto the new drive.
