I would recommend you take a look here and test this tool:

I done this myself a few times on other hdd's from the same vendor and it worked very fine but its always a risk you take so backup your things before you do this.

Btw yes your temp for the hdd is pretty high and you should try to make it lower. One quickfix is not to use your lap in the bed or where it cant get proper cooled but rather on a table or even better on a device similar like this...

You can manually run a disk check; I'll warn you now. Do it before you go to bed or go out somewhere.

just buy a new drive, if you start getting bad sectors many more will appear :D

if its under 5 years old your drive may still be under warranty.

or if your skint do a low level format
