1) Does that mean the current HDD died? 
2) Can I recover the data?
3) Why is Apple service centre charging sooooo much for 500gb HDD??

1) Possible
2) After you take HDD out, can try some recovery software
3) Biasa la Apple pricing. Product cost + labour + warranty coverage + Apple-epic-markup.

If you're the DIY sort, your model is very serviceable. Here's a guide from iFixit - http://goo.gl/aujure

Might as well take the opportunity to use an SSD instead of regular HDD.
