So my HD has been vibrating alot lately. I have a 2.26 MPB that I bought in July. This is my 2nd HD. Should I bring to the Apple Store? Will they replace it, or am I better off buy my own HD.

It's easy enough for you to replace on your own. But since it's still under warranty, I'd make Apple pay for it if you can afford to be away from your computer for a little while.

No just call Applecare and have them send you a replacement HD and replace it yourself..
 
Would they do that? Cause I'm in college so I really can't be without my computer for a couple of days.

Of course, i have been sent HD's before, you just gotta tell them you know it's the HD and ask for them to send you a replacement otherwise they can just tell you to visit an Apple store.
But if you cannot visit an Apple store and need your Macbook, tell them that and you will just make it faster.
