So the disk is worn out, and you never made a *full* backup ?
You need such backups, any time you lose a HDD, and need
to spin up a new HDD in its place.
I would slave up the HDD out of the laptop, to your
technician machine, and have a look at what partitions
are there and so on.
It probably has an MBR if the repair is coming up.
I don't think the entire disk is toast. But I
also don't feel you're out of the woods either.
Discovery is the next step.
