If you've got a bad disk drive, don't assume it's worthless - the homebrew scene has made incredible strides recently, and now you can play your backups from an internal solid state drive, or even from your memory card! There's also SD adapters for memory cards, giving pretty much unlimited space. I haven't used my disk drive in years.
