How to replace fan in Humax 1010s?

The HDD in my Humax HDR-1010s failed and I think it overheated, the fan does not appear to work. Since the fan is thermostatically controlled it is difficult to be sure.
Has anyone had the same problem with the HDD failing (it's only 2.5 yeas old) with no obvious reason?
