That is correct. If your notebook is still in warranty you can contact HP and request a replacement under warranty.

Check your warranty status Here.

 

If not in warranty, you will need to purchase a compatible SATA mobile 2.5" hard disk or an SSD.  

 

If you need to order recovery media then use the following URL. The cost is usually around $25.00 USD.
