Hello @celexvarghese,

 

Welcome to FORUM !!!!

 

 

Sorry to know !!!!

 

Whenever the Hard Disk Short/Long DST test fails that indicates that the Hard Disk Drive has failed and that requires a replacement to resolve the issue

 

HP will provide a replacement Hard Disk Drive if the Notebook warranty is Active, If not you need buy a SATA Hard Disk Drive from a retail shop nearby

 

Please Contact HP if your HP Notebook is under warranty, HP would replace the Hard Disk Drive and provide you a Recovery media to restore factory operating system after replacement (if you've not yet created Recovery Discs/USB Media)

 

Note: Back up all the personal data to an external drive if it's possible. Otherwise you could connect the failed HDD via SATA to USB adapter with another PC or same PC after replacement of HDD & re-installation of OS and try copying /recovering the files. You can also refer to the below shown link for further support

The warranty is expired. So I'll have to buy a new hardisk then, right? I'm not much familiar with buying internal hardisks. Can you suggest some 1TB hardisks for my laptop. Can you please tell me:- Where can I buy them. And How much will it cost.??

Hi,

 

Similarly, i had a boot device error 3F0 and when i ran hard drive check it said it the smart check and short dst were not installed.

 

Does this mean that the documents on the hard drive are lost? I have a lot of photos i would like to keep.
