Update: I had my friend look at my 160GB Slim PS3 again, and apparently it's either the Blu-Ray drive itself that's malfunctioning, which will cost me $80 New on eBay, or it's the HDD, in which case I'm hoping just formatting it and re-installing the PS3 OS will fix the problem.
If it is the HDD and formatting/reinstalling doesn't work, I have my eyes set on a 500GB Western Digital for only $50 New on Amazon.
I just hope they're not both malfunctioning, I can't afford to spend $130 all at once.
I would start by opening up the system and cleaning it especially if your system looks like the picture below their could be dust buildup also in the Blu-ray drive too and it may help to run one of those disk cleaners. If that doesn't do it you will need to replace the Blu-ray drive. > http://www.ebay.com/itm/Complete-Blu-ra … 1c3a6cf088
