> How ?

You have two options:

1. From: http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-sleekbook-14-b000/5296230/drivers

your computer is certified by HP to work with Windows 10.  So, purchase a license to run Windows 10.

That HP web-site does not give you an option to submit an order to HP to purchase a "System Recovery" set (usually just one USB memory-stick), that will reinstall Windows 8.

2. Check:  www.ComputerSurgeons.com  -- you may be able to purchase a "System Recovery" set (for Windows 😎 from them.

Any "consumer" disk-drive manufactured in the last 5 (or more) years has a SATA interface.

It's now rare for a laptop computer to use any "wires" between the motherboard and the disk-drive.

Instead, the SATA interface plugs directly into a "socket" on the motherboard.

Google-search for "download free SPECCY".

Download, install, and run SPECCY.

Select and "expand" the 'STORAGE' section, to see output like:

You get a "disk drive error" when at least one of those many(!) 'Good' indicators has been replaced by  Warning or 'Bad'.

The disk-drive still works -- compare to driving your autombile with the "check engine" light showing -- but it's a sign that the disk-drive is experiencing a problem, and probably should be backed-up, and then replaced, before it totally "fails".

That is a REALLY BAD SIGN that your disk-drive (or maybe your motherboard) has some sort of INTERMITTENT problem.

Either:

*  make DAILY backups of your files (perhaps by using "disk-cloning" software to make an identical copy) and continue to use your current disk-drive,

* replace the disk-drive, before it completely fails,

* ignore the problem.

Your choice.
