Repair? No. The disk is done. However, there are some companies that can often pull a lot of the data off the drive for you. It's expensive though.
A head crash is a type of hard disk failure that occurs when a read/write head touches the fast spinning disk platters. It is very catastrophic - it can destroy lots of data - even the data needed to start an operating system can be destroyed.
head crash
hard drive head crash
In a hard disk the heads fly above the surface on a thin cushion of air, to prevent wear to the disk or heads. Should something cause the heads to touch the moving disk surface it is called a "head crash" and is not all that different from an airplane crash, as the heads quit flying on their cushion of air.
Emergency Repair Disk (EPD)
An installation cd/dvd is essential in order to repair the start-up disk. The Mac needs a booting platform & this cd/dvd provides exactly the same. One cannot repair the boot partition while initiating the system from it. Thankfully, there are couple of disk repair software such as Stellar Volume Repair and Disk Warrior that provides bootable disk if your installation cd is missing. You can boot from the DVD created by the software and then perform repairment with the help of these partition repair tools.

Yes it can because, it may have been used before and then cleared but could still contain the virus that might crash the computer.. However, if it is brand new and has never been used before then no it can't crash a computer.

There are a number of free disk repair software programs one can download of free. Some of these programs are 'CheckDisk', 'Disk Health Monitor', 'Disk Heal' and 'HDD Regenerator'.
It is possible but not recommended to preform hard disk repair at home unless you have had some training or are willing to damage the hard disk. Special tools are required to prevent further damaging the hard disk.
When a hard disk is said to have "crashed" it means that the read/write head has come in contact with the magnetic medium. The read/write head is SUPPOSED to "fly" above the surface, never actually touching down. The disk turns at such a high speed that if the head touches down it destroys the surface resulting in what is affectionately called a "head crash" or a "disk crash". A computer virus cannot cause that kind of hardware failure.
