Hi:
A short DST failure means the hard drive needs to be replaced and the operating system reinstalled.
Consult the maintenance and service guide on your specific model PC's support page for the hard drive removal and replacement procedure.
You may want to consider purchasing a better performing, normally more reliable solid state drive (SSD).
Be alert for scammers posting fake support phone numbers and/or email addresses on the community.
