help...Inspiron 6400 DST Short test failure....Its only been a year and half!!!!
Hi all,
My computer has been working awfully slow lately so I initiated a diagnostics test. It states that my hard drive failed the DST Short Test.
Does this mean that I have to replace my hard drive?! I hope not...I've only had my laptop for a year and a half!!!!
Please advise.

A few percent of hard drives will fail in any given time period - that can be out of the box, after six months, a year, or five years - as with any manufactured product, there's no way to tell.
