You kno, ther does come a point in a hard drive's life when it will just stop working, and from the sound of it, your hard drive has fallen into that unfortunate category. i hope you kept backups. Drive failure is most commonly a hardare issue, and in such a case, there really isn't too much that a software product can do about the hardware beyond alerting you to the possibility of a hard drive fault.
it's a shame that you ranked Drive Genius so poorly because of a situation that existed before you even installed and used it, and that your HD had gotten to such a state before you decided to act on it with tools beyond the built-in offerings that Apple provided, but those cannot be attributed to Drive Genius', and as i said, not all hard drives last forever.
i DO hope that the drive you replace it with, (if you have opted to do that), will last much longer than your last one did.
