Yea, this sounds like a dead hdd. If you play a game from the DVD rom, is it fine?

Heat problems maybe? Try turning your fan up to 12v or 100%

Well...assuming all other options are exhausted, it pretty much comes down to faulty hardware...so, you should try another hdd in THAT xbox, or try that hdd in another xbox.  Then you might can eliminate whether it might be a faulty hdd, or motherboard, or anything else.
