HP touchsmart tm2 laptop: DST short hard drive failed

Because my laptop was not start (only a blank screen to come), I ran the advanced diagnostic by pressing F2 while bootung.

After you run the disk hard test the short DST failed with the ID PLVLWC-4G24HG-XD6VSG-60TP03 failure.  The laptop is out of warranty. I did the hard reset by removing the battery power button & pressing it showing positive results. The hard drive is repairable or do I replace it? Pls advice

No repair of hard drives; they must be replaced.

See page 41 manual Service here:

Manual

It can use any hard drive portable thick 9.5 mm standard 2.5 inch wide and I recommend that you get at least a disk 7200 RPM like this:

  • Pavilion 15: check the DST short hard drive failed

    My laptop is not starting, when I open it I get the hp logo then a black screen, when I did a fast system to test the short hard drive DST check failed with a page ID: PLW6J2-6SL88N-MFPWXG-60RR03 and a product ID: E2G95EA #ABV.

    My main concern is the data stored on the hard drive what can I do to get the job of the laptop to not lose data?

    Stop using the laptop. Replace the hard drive with a new one. Get a SATA to usb adapter to connect the old drive (which you will eliminate) to another computer to try to save the data. There is a good chance of data is still recoverable this way.

  • DST short hard drive failed, code 64XTPH - 00078 M-X87SXG-60RW03

    I experienced detention and the system freezes on my Compaq CQ2909EO desktop. Guarantee was completed two weeks ago, and unsurprisingly the problems started almost immediately after that. He went so far, that I was forced to do a check disk onto another computer with Freecom Dock. Quite a few errors have been resolved, so I installed the drive in my Compaq and method to rearm the system settings and reinstall Win 8. I was able to do the reinstall without problem, but when running Windows updates the system froze again. It crashes every time, the first thing that can happen is the HARD drive light on the front turns off. I knew what to look for in the event log and found half a dozen events like this:

    Event ID 129 - storachi - Reset device, \Device\RaidPort0, has been published

    So I installed the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI and he ran. Everything seems to be ok, but short drive self test (DST) fails with code 64XTPH - 00078 M-X87SXG-60RW03. Does that mean I have a defective hard drive, or possibly a faulty controller? I need to know whether to buy a new player or a whole new non-HP-rendering (more under warranty, please) computer.

    A hard drive DST error usually indicates that the hard disk has failed or is subject to fail and will have to replaced. After replacing the hard drive, please use the support of HP recovery, you created earlier to return the computer to a factory State.

    If you create your HP recovery media when you first set up your computer, please contact the official support of HP in your region / country, via the HP portal to support all over the world, to see if the HP recovery support is available for your computer.

    Well, if this is the case, it must be too late to consider waiting.  A new hard drive seems to be in order.  Given that the post says Windows 10, which is the updated "free"?  If this is the case, then order a 1 TB hard drive to replace the failed unit.  On the restoration of the OS, I have to assume certain things

    (1) you do not have the recovery put DVD to reinstall Windows 8, as it was

    (2) you do not really want to reinstall Windows 8, on the new hard drive

    (3) If you have access to a working computer and can make windows 10 media creation dvd site M$, you might be able to reinstall Windows 10 using this.  Of course, any other software that has been installed on the old drive before it failed will be lost, unless you have the information you need to reinstall that, too.

    Considering that the computer does not start, I have to assume the worst condition for the reader.  It is perhaps not completely watered and important data cannot be retrieved, but don't count on it.

    Let me know how things go once the drive is replaced.

    Hello Fiona-s,

    Thanks for posting in the Forum of Support HP!

    I'm afraid that the HARD drive has failed - the question is material one and all simply restore/reinstall will not solve it. Yes, you need to replace the HARD disk new or better with the SSD. SSDS are up to 10 times faster than hard drives:

    > http://ocz.com/consumer/ssd-guide/ssd-vs-hdd

    > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_drive

    There are more than 100 manufacturers and sellers SSD, but personally, I would choose Samsung, Intel, Toshiba, or OCZ ones.

    Microsoft Windows 7, 8.1, and 10 have supported for SSDS. Vista and XP - no

    You will need a recovery media to restore the windows once you have installed the new SSD or HARD disk.

    You can get possible by contacting HP Support. Here's how:

  • HP short cell Test at startup - DST hard drive failed

    Laptop HP 2000-453-CA

    Product ID: A7T89UA #ABC

    64-bit Windows 8

    Failure ID: GLWG6K-00075P-MFKT01-60V403

    My computer is 2 years old. Recently, he began to act, its been getting really slow and the temperature of the computer has increased very easily.

    One day, when I turned on my computer, the screen is blank after the windows logo screen when you turn on the computer, and it remained empty forever. The screen was always backlit and occasionally I see the mouse cursor.

    Once the recovery screen appeared when I turned it on, I tried all the options he had (except reset and refresh because he says he needs additional files and insert a recovery disc) and it still does not work.

    Finally, I tried pressing ESC to boot and used the system diagnostics menu. I chose the test start and when he finished he said short hard drive DST: failure and starting Test: failed. Everything happened.

    Please help... What can I do to fix this?

    Thanks in advance!

    I hope you made a backup of your personal data and you did the recovery disks.

  • Pavilion g6-2218nr short hard drive DST test Failed

    I have a HP Pavilion laptop g6-2218nr that will not start.  When you run the marketing diagnostic test and the hard drive diagnostic test, both tests showed the hard drive DST short FAILED.

    The failure code is:

    GUQDU4-6B872D-MFPX1F - 60Q 103

    Product ID:

    C2N56UA #ABA

    The laptop is unfortunately no longer under warranty.  Should the hard drive be replaced?  Can you recommend a replacement?  Are there instructions available?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    The error code indicates that the hard drive is faulty and will need to be replaced - a brief guide to do it yourself is detailed below.

    Your laptop is considered as coming with a 320 GB hard drive, but you can install just as easily a 500 GB or 750 GB HARD drive if you want a little more space - readers at the following links are examples that would be perfect for your laptop.

    Hard drive 500 GB

    750 GB hard drive.

    The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 52 of your & Maintenance Guide.

    Once this is done, simply use your recovery DVD to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - this is described in the document of HP here.

    If you do not have your recovery discs, you can order a replacement set using the link below.

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

    Hi @MikerP!

    I'm sorry to say this, but the 24-character error codes indicates a drive failure, which means that the drive is defective and must be replaced.

    You always have access to the data stored on the disk? If you do, then save as much information as possible and look for a replacement drive. If the product is still under warranty, you can contact support, but in case you have no guarantee and you would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself – please let me know.

    I hope this helps and good luck!

    Hello David.

    Of course you can upgrade the HARD drive to a larger drive, but it is not easy to do on this model.

    The keyboard must be removed to access the screws underneath. Screws at the bottom should be deleted, then you can remove the top cover. An audio plate must also be removed before you can remove the HARD drive.

    Here's the manual from HP explaining the procedure more in detail. You want to read it carefully.

    If you have not created the recovery media before occurred problems, you can always contact HP support to obtain a copy.

  • Have a computer dell laptop. replaced the hard drive; tried to install my Windows XP and my product key is not accepted. I was wondering why and how do to accomplish this task.

    My dell laptop had the hard drive replaced.  My son, who knows computers, installed the new hard drive.  Then he tried to install my Windows XP Professional software - when it came time to put the product key #, it was not accepted.  It's authentic.  The product key is: * removed *.

    There no mention of this issue in section outages or other information provided in the booklet provided.  Can you help me with this problem?

    The license key and product type must match (XP Home vs XP Pro;)  (and OEM license vs the retail license).  If it's a Dell computer and you get the product key from a sticker on the case, then there is likely a version of Windows XP OEM this product key.  If you install Windows XP from a retail installation disk, then the types of licenses will not match.  You will need to use the license that accompanies the retail installation disc or you will need to contact Dell for an OEM installation disc to go with the license on your sticker case.
