Every hard drive will fail eventually. Some take days. Some take decades. Most fail somewhere in between those extremes. But every single one of them will eventually die. That's why backups and RAID are both good ideas. As for what to do, you can put the drive in any other linux box or boot a live CD from any distro and take a look at it. Attempts to fsck may screw it up more, though. Probably best to mount whatever's left read only and see what you can find.
