Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.

SMART takes over 20 measurements of the "health" of your disk-drive.

According to it, none of those measurements have gone from "good" to "warning" or to "fail".

That's good.

> long dst : failed

The "long" test takes many minutes to run the DST ("Drive Self Test").

The "failure" means that some of the "testing" Input/Output to the disk-drive has failed.

This implies that you need to replace the disk-drive, before it COMPLETELY fails.

If the disk-drive has some residual "life", the quickest method is to use "disk-cloning" software, to make a block-for-block copy of your disk-drive, as exactly as possible, onto a brand-new replacement disk-drive.

Then, like changing a flat-tire on your automobile, swap-out the old one, and swap-in the new one, and restart.

Your computer was originally shipped with Windows 8.1 -- which implies that your computer was manufactured during/before mid-2015 (when Windows 10 was released).  So, the disk-drive definitely is "out-of-warranty".
