My Hard Drive is failing. It's an HDD. I passed the Smart Test, but failed the Short DST test. My laptop is still under warranty. Is it possible to get a replacement.

Yes, HP will replace it. Start a request for warranty service here:

Most of the HP 15 models are difficult to change hard drive. Requires almost complete dis-assembly. Since it is still in warranty it is much better to let HP do it. If you damaged something else it would not be covered under warranty.
Look through the Service Manual to see the process:
