After several years of service, my SH3 disk no longer reads properly and I can't perform a new installation of it on a computer. I can use it OK to run an already-installed SH3 install. I still have my receipt from when I bought it back in 2005 from Chips & Bits Inc, but they appear to have gone out of business.

I'm just wondering what my best options are.
I see now that there are many mods for SH3 including the ability to play without the disk in the computer, and that SH3 can still be purchased here for around $10. Should I just buy a new copy? Is there any process to replace a failing disk, or is it easier to just buy a new copy?

Any help is welcome.
