This is going to be difficult

General
Mainly because adjusting to not having my Mac is going to royally f*ck me up.
So here's what I found out after visiting the Apple Store near me;
My harddrive is failing. I was told it could of started two or three years ago, and the computer itself would of ignored the failing vectors. When the boot up problems started, it could no longer function correctly.
Was told I should either replace the harddrive...
Or buy a new one that is up to date.
I was told by an Apple employee to not go through Apple for repairs, as they would simply slap the same harddrive back into it because they are not allowed to update it to anything bigger or better. So now I need to purchase a new harddrive and install it myself, then go to Apple and have them reupload all my data from the back up...
I have no idea how long this is going to take...but my guess is months...

Uhh, why not just have me clone the drive for you? If you get me a new hard drive and the old one I can do that, assuming your hard drive isn't completely failing out.
