Hardware damage can cause those symptoms.

Intermittent hardware failures can cause those symptoms as well.

You realize there are many components in a computer and that several of
them involve the hard drive besides jsut the hard drive, don't you?
Hell, it could be as simple as the SATA ribbon jarring lose, though
unlikely. It could be the SATA controller itself.

Yes. You shouldn't assume you know what's wrong. The best course of action
is to bring the machine to an Apple retail store to let them do an
exhaustive diagnostic to see exactly which hardware is malfunctioning.
Again, the longer you wait, the less of a chance they will do any repairs
for free since the warranty just expired. They can be very lenient - it's
up to their discretion. Considering how costly these repairs might be, I
don't understand your apparent reluctance to do it. What are you waiting
for??

It's not me. It's him. He just doesn't want to hand his HDD to the store 
even though I told I could DBAN it.

Quote of the Week: Allah's Apostle said, "Once while a prophet amongst 
the prophets was taking a rest underneath a tree, an ant bit him. He, 
therefore, ordered that his luggage be taken away from underneath that 
tree and then ordered that the dwelling place of the ants should be set 
on fire. Allah sent him a revelation: 'Wouldn't it have been sufficient 
to burn a single ant (that bit you)?'" --Translation of Sahih Bukhari,

he doesn't have to give it to the for a checkup, but the hard drive is
probably the only thing that failed due to the drop.

Wait, are you saying that they can quickly test during an appointment? 
How long does that take? Maybe this will convince him to go.

FYI. HDD seems to be getting worse since lots of colorful pinwheel and 
getting suck to force power cycling. :(

that's what the appointments are for.

10-15 minutes or so. they net-boot it and run their diagnostics. 

based on your description, the disk is an obvious failure and if
there's anything else wrong, it will show up or not show up fairly
quickly (minutes). 

then they'll tell you what's wrong with it and how much it will cost to
fix. since applecare recently expired they might waive the fees, but
there are no guarantees that they will. either way, you can always
decline if you don't want to give them the drive or for any other
reason. you can leave with your broken macbook, if you want.

Ah, I thought the tests would take a while like repairs.

OK. I'll let him know.

Yep, it typically takes just a few minutes to run through the diagnostic
tests, and they will happily do it right there while he watches.

It may be more than just the drive.

No need to use DBAN. Just run Disk Utility and erase the drive. You can
even do a single or multi-pass erase filling the drive with random data if
you are ultra paranoid, though that will take much longer and is kind of
pointless since Apple would have to spend quite a but of time and money to
try to recover anything from an erased drive. Just erase it and bring it in
- done deal.

all that activity will likely kill the drive entirely.

Well he's already done a normal erase with success. Personally, I'd just
do that again and be done with it. Apple's not going to spend the time
and money to try to *maybe* recover whatever has been erased. And even
it the drive does go belly up, he should still bring it into Apple for
diagnostics which will show if other hardware was damaged in the drop.
