Hard drive needs to be replaced

Dell Diagnostics says I need to replace the hard drive.  I have two that is faulty?  The error message is o-s/n-wd-wcatr7339737

Dell diagnostics (F12 at startup) will tell you which drive has failed.

If both disks are part of a RAID 0 array, you can consider replacing both of them - they are both the same age and likely came from the same production batch, which means that it is very possible that the other player may not long to live, either.

    I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
    Would be very grateful to hear some opinions/suggestions :)

    -Thanks in advance

    In general you need is of 2.5 HARD drive with connector SATA and these drives, you can find in every store of the computer. Pick up some info on the proposed models, capacities and prices so that you can make a decision that you want to buy.
    > I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
    In my opinion it's the wrong opinion. Using SSD increase you the performance of laptop computer s quickly and were very quick machine. One day if you do not want to use this laptop, you can remove the SSD and put old HDD inside. SSD can be used on the new machine.
    For me, it's the best solution for you.

    Last year I've improved my 4 years old P500 with SSD and I m very happy with it. The price was only 149 Euros. It's OK price. Change the HARD drive is not complicated and you can do it alone.

  • Replace broken HARD drive: need a

    Hi, I have a desktop HP Pavilion h6310y, Win7(x64). 6 GB ram, 1 TB WD HDD.

    The drive has crashed. He was giving me problems for a while now, but now he's dead. I ran diagniostics standard hp bios on it.

    Error code: BIOHD - 1

    Error: Fail to communicate with the device.

    Contact HP support.

    The computer and the drive is out of hub, so I'll just have to replace.

    I can go to Amazon and buy a.

    But my question is:

    1. do I need a disk with Windows7? (I have no cause).

    The computer would have a partition on the hard disk with it.

    2. I did the DVD of recovery before it crashed, as the system image on the external hard drive. This will be enough to reinstall?

    or I have to order DVD of Win7?

    3. How can I order the DVD if I need one? I wanted to call HP and ask, but they will supposedly, charge me to ask, because I'm out of warranty.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Michael,

    To answer your questions in order.

    1. everything you need to buy is a new hard drive.

    2. you can use your recovery DVDs to reload the operating system on the new HARD drive, or the best option would probably be to load the Disk Image as this will reload Windows in the exact state wherever it was when the image was created.

    3. If you ever need to, you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00810334

    If you have a problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

    If you live in the United States, contact HP here.
