Blown window pane

The top pane in my window is blown but the lower one looks fine. Do I need to replace the whole lot?

"No you don't need to replace the lot, just the one that has blown.
Only the glass will need to be replaced. It's worth taking a look at your other windows just in case but unless it's really noticeable, it's not necessary."

"You only need to replace the glass. It's a sealed unit that eventually breaks down and air gets it. The othe ones may or may not go soon aswell. From experience the other will probably go in the next year or 2"
