Harddisk problem, should I fsck it?

Hello,

It seems that I can't write anything to the /dev/hda3 harddisk.

It always said: Read-only file system

I also tried to issue a command: mount -o remount,rw /

But it said: block device /dev/hda3 is write-protected, mounting read-only

When I do dmesg | grep hd and dmesg | grep ext3, nothing print out.

I tried dmesg | grep abort, it prints:

EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted

EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted

The problem is there is no way for me to backup the data. I tried rsync, ftp and can't do it since the sys can't write anything. Only the web server can get my data.

I can ask the tech in DC to fsck, but I just afraid I will lost all my data. For case, don't you think the chance of lost data is high?
