I noticed that my Hard Drive lost a little bit of performance,not much,like 15% and all GTA 5 files where corrupted and unreadable.The thing is:The warranty of my pc is running out in 3 months.Should I leave the drive in, and wait until it completely fails or should I tell the dealer? And if I leave it in and it fails on me after the warranty runs out, should i get an SSD or an HDD?

 

Note:There is nothing important on the drive, so if it fails, it isnt all that tragic.

My Build:

I7 4770k(3.7Ghz)(Watercooled, Astek 510LC)/Asus GTX 1070Ti Strix Advanced/1600 MHz DDR3 12GB/ASUS Z87-M G30AB/Kingston RBU-SC400S37128G 128GB SDD/Toshiba DT01ACA100 1000GB HDD/Acbel R88 ATX12V 700W /Windows 8.1 64 Bit

I would grab the SSD. Most likely the dealer won't give two shits if it degrades, he'll only do something if it dies.
