why would my hdd be failing though, what would cause it?

All hardrives will fail with age, the amount of time varies greatly, they are machanical devices with moving parts that eventually wear out, thats why its important to backup.

and should it be listed as 1st primary drive since its my c drive?

No its just connected to the secondary contoller on the motherboard is all, that won't hurt anything.
You can see that S.M.A.R.T has it listed as bad twice in the post screen, most likely time for a new one
