Hi,
It looks like the hard drive in my almost new (just past warranty) pavilion 500-420qe is going out. When I turn it on, I can hear it but the screen goes to black.
I ran diagnostics and got a FAILED for Hard Drive Short DST for hard drive 2.
What size hard drive to I need to replace it? I cannot find that specification.
Any suggestions on where to buy one?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
