Hard Disk Crashed! HELP ME!

I have 2 internal hard disks in my Macintosh Quadra 610. Macintosh
HD and La Cie 1250-Q. La Cie 1250-Q was my startup disk. When I
booted up several days ago, it booted off of Macintosh HD instead
of La Cie 1250-Q and it said something like "This disk is
unreadable. Would you like to initialize it? Eject Initialize." I
hit Eject and tried to fix La Cie 1250-Q with everything that I
have; Disk First Aid 7.2.2, Norton Utilities 3.2.3, and MacTools
Pro 4.0.3. I also analyzed it with Tech Tool Pro 1.0.1. Nothing
can fix it, but Norton Unerase found all of my files.

La Cie 1250-Q is a 1.2 GB hard disk with only 18 MB free. The only
way that I know of to fix my hard disk is to unerase all of my
files to another disk with 1.2 GB free, format La Cie 1250-Q, and
copy the files back again. I can't afford another 1.2 GB hard
disk. Please help me! Are there any programs that I haven't tried?
Are there any companies that rent hard disks? What can I do to
ensure that this does not happen again?

I am using Silverlining� 5.6.4 as the driver on La Cie 1250-Q
because that is what came with the hard disk. I also have an
external hard disk named Joule 410-Q that I booted off of for the
Norton Utilities check.

Here are some error reports:
