Hard drive DST warning

My system check came up with a warning upon the hard drive DST quick check

Not good. Almost certainly means the hard drive needs replacement. Back up immediately if you have not done so before. And post back with the full model number so we can give you detailed help.

Here is the Service Manual:

Your specs say you have a 256 gig NVME M.2 SSD as your only storage drive. Start on p. 29 to remove the back cover. 

This is what you see inside:

There is a metal shield covering the M.2 slot and RAM modules. You have to remove that. You can use a PCIe/NVME M.2 SSD to replace the bad one, such as the Samsung Evo 970 series:

Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed. Your laptop seems pretty new and if its under warranty let us know that as you do not need to go through all this.
