Hi happy-it I would like to tell you first that you need to learn and I think that you need this a lot.
All your questions is from a person that never work with a hard disks before, so even if someone here anwser your questions the anwsers will have no value for you because you will do nothing with them, but here we go:
All the firsts are ATA specifications, Time is a error that happens when a request is donne in a HD and it take to long to anwser, the BBK is an uncorrectable defect.
HPA is when you change the size of a hard disk, and the propose to do this is because some part is to demage to be fixed.
I think that you need to read about ATA specification and then you will be able to understand the means of all this, and to read about this you will need to go to http://www.t13.org and get texts about ATA specifications.
Best regards
