Hello,
You should make a more complete test of the disk with the vendor's disk test utilities, which are meant to test extensively the disk:

Your hard disk model is mentioned there.

I wouldn't trust it for very long.
I had kind of the same issue with an older laptop. As you did, I formatted the hard drive and installed some programs. Then, before going to bed I shut it down and turned it back on for one more test and it didn't do anything but give me a gray screen. The HD was just dead
