Got a family member with an HP desktop with windows 10 that is about 3 years old. He has started to have issues with it. It will boot up to windows, although a little slow and will run for about 10 minutes or so then get a blue screen, then goes to black screen with message saying 1720-smart drive detects imminent failure, failing drive SATA0(dark blue), failing attribute: 00. There is option to press f1 to boot and it will continue to windows and will load up but keeps repeating same process over.
The hard drive is a 2.5 ssd 512gb Hajaan brand. Did a chkdsk on it, when it first started several things came up saying corrupt. But it crashed before it was able to finish. Checked the temps and was normal. When I first checked t ask manager, disk usage was showing 100% but crashed before I was able to see what was causing that. After it restarted, went down to around 50%. Guessing that 1720 message means the drive is bad or can that mean something else? Have not attempted to reinstall windows thinking it will not be able to come close to finishing. Not concerned about the files on there as they have already been backed up previously.
