Vostro 5470: HDD Error Code 2000-0142
Hi everyone! I just ran a diagnostic on my Vostro 5470 and got the following message:
200-0142
Validation 96721
Msg: Hard Drive O-S/N TMA 55DTF260WZR, Long self test unsuccessful
I've been using the laptop for about 4 years now and it works fine for now though. Is there anything to be worried about? Or if I should perform any other test before going for a new hdd (if needed)? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

The hard drive needs to be replaced.
Back up what you can, while you can - the drive is not long for this world.
