It is definitely your hard drive. I had the same thing happening to one of my PCs. I ignored it and dealt with the random reboots until the system wouldn't even boot up before rebooting again.

This is something that cannot be fixed, as it is a physical error on the HDD. Reformatting the drive and reinstalling the OS does not work. My advice is buy a new HDD ASAP and transfer your files before the entire drive completely fails. I know from experience and it's not fun.
I swear, troubleshooting is a science: the best discoveries are always on accident...
