HP Zook series
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
Unable to boot my computer this morning, I ran hardware diagnostics. The computer passed the memory check and the SMART check but failed the Short DST.

Error code: UFH3HF-000840-XD7V7F-60SL03
Product ID: G8B26UC#ABA

I know generally a failed DST test means the hard drive has gone bad, but I have yet to see an error code similar to mine on the forums so I thought I'd check, just in case.

Hi,

 

Unfortunately, the code does confirm a failure of the short Disk Self Test and would indicate that the drive should be replaced.  The error codes are unique as they contain a hash other information such as the time of the test.
