About two months ago I created a dual boot on my HP Pavilion x360 with Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04. On Friday, my laptop wouldn't boot and told me it couldn't find the OS. I ran the diagnostics provided through HP and it told me that SMART tests would pass but the Long DST was failing.
I got Ubuntu 18.04 on a USB and that's what I'm currently on. With that, I ran the Ubuntu-provided diagnostic on my harddrive. It fails the self-test but all the individual tests say they're OK. Is my hard drive failing? Could this be caused by a bad partition? Which test is causing the assessment to fail?
I'm a new Ubuntu user. This is really the first time I've used it. Thanks!
