If you are sure you have a faulty HDD, just replace it. Nothing special to be done beforehand, it will set itself up once installed. Just match the Master/Slave jumper settings from the old drive to the new drive.
Have you checked the HDD read/write function to confirm a dead HDD. Sometimes on the Sharp machines, just a power reset will clear the HDD error and you may never see it again.
Before you change the HDD, just confirm that the DC Power supply CN2 Pin 8 is OK, with no loose wire. E7-03 can be caused by this as well.
