SMART hard drive imminent failure

Error message at startup, "SMART hard drive control has detected an imminent failure. I realized the full backup of the system as advised, and then run the System Diagnostics / the hard drive Test. The result of this test says:

SMART check failed

Failure ID: 9G9V5Q - 55G 656 - 9XL03G - 60DB03

Do I have to change my hard drive, or - is this repairable?

Hard drive 1 - model: WDC WD2500BEKT-60A25T1

If I need again, what is the best place to buy (online)?

Thank you

Peter

Hi, Peter:

The drive needs to be replaced.

If you want the same size, it is a very good model.

    Hello

    This afternoon Windows started give me repeated warnings saying;

    If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP (with code) and make arrangements for the disk replaced - you can check the status of your warranty here.

  • 1720 smart hard drive detects imminent failure. do backup - how can I move my files when I get a new hard drive?

    Hi, I have "1720 smart hard drive detects imminent failure" made a backup, Gather I have to get another drive. How can I transfer my windows vista / files to new drive? Help, please.

    Hello

    There are different ways to do

    and these methods depend on your hard drive work

    hard drive manufacturers will normally provide the cloning to move your operating system software from the old to the new drive hard If your old hard drive still works

    Search for information on this subject on their Web site

    If you have vista business or ultimate, you can use the builtin vista complete PC Backup to move

    read the information below

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial145.html

    or if you have vista home version you'll need 3rd party software

    link below is an example of this:

    http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/TrueImage/index.html

    also to put your machine how you bought:

    1. If vista is preinstalled, you should have a recovery on your old hard drive partition

    You can recovery disks to reinstall on your new drive hard If the old drive still works

    ask the manufacturer of the machine how

    2. contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    3. or borrow a microsoft dvd vista

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

    Hello

    I have a message "SMART provides a defect on the disc dur0: TOSHIBA MK5055GSX-(S1)" or (the same in English) "Smart Drive detects imminent failure".
    On the newsgroups different 'people' says to change the disk.

    My problem is not to change the drive, it's easy. Expensive, but easy.

    As I understand it, on each disk from Toshiba, a hidden partition, which allows to restore the machine, with Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator there?.
    I would like to change the disc and use the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator? to restore Vista.

    How can I reinstall everything what to use Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator? This new disk to reinstall Vista from this new album.

    Thanks for any response.
    ADri

    > If I understand correctly, each disk Toshiba, there is a hidden partition, which allows to restore the machine, with Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator?

    That s not entirely correct!
    The Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator creates the recovery disk! The recovery disk allows to recover the laptop using the drive and not the HARD drive recovery process!

    New portable Toshiba supports HARD drive recovery which allows to restore the laptop without the use of the recovery disc!

  • SMART HARD drive after OS update failure

    Hi all

    I was updating of El Captian 10.11.6 to macOS Sierra 10.12 by Mac App Store. First of all, there were not officially available in India in the update Section. Ignorant comments, I tried to get it from the features Section. Finally, after you download the update of 4.77 GB, I received an error "system file or a disk error extended.» If please reboot the system and then try to reinstall macOS Sierra. After N number of attempts, failed and called Apple Care Support. First of all, they let me not format my HARD drive without check "Repair Disk Permissons" and after formatting, I get SMART errors and no warnings.

    Now I am frustrated and irritated because of 2 reasons

    1. I've updated Mountain Lion 10.8 to 10 Mavericks and El Captian 10.11.6 without error with all the updates and patches from Apple installed successfully. At the expense of someone, I bear the costs.

    2A 1 Apple checked permissions of drive SMART error, or just update the old latest versions installed, at least I got all the files, folders, data intact.

    Please help me because I'm not able to return again to Mountain Lion, OS even when I bought my Mac Machine.

    Kindly help.

    Thank you

    Looks like your hard drive has failed if you get the SMART errors. Readers tend to fail when they are pushed hard, such as during a major software upgrade. I hope that you will have a Time Machine current backup so that you can restore your machine once a new hard drive is put in place.

  • HP mini says check Smart hard drive detected an immenent failure

    Went to use my mini and he had a black screen with a warning about the content of backup immediately because it has detected a failure immennent.  It won't let me something but run the proposed test and the test of hard drive has failed in this regard, a HP mini 110-3100. Not even yet 3 years old.  Can someone tell me if I lost all that on it or if there is a fix that I can do myself or take home. Could what cost be, no idea?

    Please and thank you!

    Probably the best chance to recover all your files would be to remove the hard drive. Then attach it to a > hdd USB adapter or a > USB hdd Enclosure. Plug it into a machine via USB and hard drive will appear as a drive to extra storage that you can browse and copy files on the hard drive of the machine to work. Of course, it depends on how much life is left in the drive.

  • Windows 7 installation - event 'SMART' hard drive / failure

    I recently upgraded to Vista Home Premium (shipped with dell in 2007 PC) for Windows 7 Ultimate.  Any upgrade went fine, except that when I rebooted, I keep getting an error of the Intel Matrix Storage Console that my hard drive reports that a SMART event and may soon fail.  I also get a dialog windows 'hard drive error.  I ran a check disk on this subject says bad clusters in windows multiple deletion (out of 10).  Then I ran a sfc scannow command and no violation of integrity.  My concern is that I don't really think that it is a bad drive.  Everything was fine before the upgrade to windows 7.  I went under device mgr and checked to make sure that the Intel Matrix Storage Console had a current pilot, he is listed as version 8.6.2.1012.  I clicked on "update driver", and he said it was common.  I have a SAMSUNG SP2504C hard drive.  At this stage I don't know how to proceed.

    All ACTIVE errors are VERY important and SHOULD not be ignored.  SMART monitors the internal sensors of the 'health' hard disk and warns you of 'users' hard drives will probably fail.

    You should consider replacing the hard drive or download the Samsung hard drive diagnostic software to test the integrity of the player.   (NOTE: diagnostic tests could erase the hard drive.)

  • Re: Satellite L650D SMART HARD drive failure, backup fails when only half

    Hello

    I have a laptop L650D. I get the following error message
    "Disk0.
    Your HARD drive has failed to predict INTELLIGENT works what monitors HARD drive operating status. Your HARD drive is facing a problem and SMARRT monitoring software predicts that the HARD drive will fail. Toshiba strongly recommends that you create a backup for the data on your HARD drive. Contact an authorized service provider to check your drive and buy a new drive for replacement if necessary. »
    It then gives me the option to make a back-up.
    I tried two times to make this backup and twice it almost 50% of fact and then it says there no :(
    It only gives me the option to backup DVD drive, the ability to use another drive is grayed out and cannot be selected (I have a 1 TB drive external DRIVE connected via USB)

    I always use the laptop, there not having yet. I copied all the pictures, documents and emails from my external HARD drive it will not be too devastating if it falls.

    Any suggestions?

    I am trying to locate my receipt, because I think that's only a little more than 12 months since I bought it. Not sure if I can argue to get the HARD drive replaced under warranty, as it should last longer than what he has.

    Thanks in advance

    If I understand you well you want to backup using Windows Backup and Restore option system, right? I put t really know if there is any sense to do this if the HARD drive is probably faulty.
    What you need is the backup of your personal data.

    My suggestion: buy external HARD drive, connect it to your laptop and copy all the important things on that external data. When you have a new HARD drive in your laptop, you need to install the new OS so I put t think you need this Windows backup.
