What is the warranty of a "Toshiba" harddrive of my HP laptop??

I bought my HP Pavilion DV7-1175NR laptop on 10/12/08.  Recently, I noticed my laptop runs really slow, and the harddisk LED remains on constantly.  Using Window's drive self-test, it was determined that "Hard disk 1 needs to be replaced".  Because I was not able to wait, I went out and bought a new drive.  I had to install everything from scratch but with the new drive my laptop functions fine now.  However, I want to know what is the warranty on the dead drive?  I know Seagate offers a 5-year warrantly on all its harddrive products.  Toshiba's website says if any of its components (such as harddisk) are part of another manufacturer's device (such as laptop), then I'll need to contact the manufacturer (HP).  So, what can HP do about my hard drive?
This question was solved.

Hdd's made by all manufacturers for OEM's such as HP,Dell,etc are not covered by the standard warranty available on the retail versions. The hdd is covered by the OEM under standard 1 year warranty, unless you purchase the Extended Warranty which  can be for 1-2 more yrs.

  • What is the warranty on an iPad Smart Cover purchased in India?

    I purchased a smart cover along with the new iPad in India from an Apple Authorized reseller. I was wondering what is the warranty offered for genuine Apple accessories purchased from an Apple Authorized reseller in India, in particular the Smart Cover. There should be a simple "Yes or No" answer to this question.
    According to Apple, they offer a one year warranty for all Apple accessories. http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/accessory-english.html
    And yet, I was denied warranty coverage by the AASP and Service Center stating that Smart Covers are not covered under this warranty.
    To extend the question:
    1) Is the Apple Smart Cover NOT an Apple Accessory?
    2) If it is an Apple Accessory, then is it not subject to the same warranties granted for all Apple Accessories?
    3) If there is an undisputed understanding that a smart cover is flawed, should the smart cover be replaced within one year?

    King is nearly absolutely right. When you restore your iPhone in iTunes (Restore iPhone), new software is downloaded and installed on your iPad. However, if you "Erase All Content and Settings," this simply does what it says. It removes whatever you have on your iPad and wipes it allowing you to start fresh.
    It's important to note that this does not install new software on your iPad. If you are having trouble with your iPad and are attempting to restore to troubleshoot or resolve an issue, it's always best to restore from iTunes for new software.

    In regards to your device not being recognized by iTunes, King hit the money. The article he linked will absolutely resolve that issue providing the issue isn't with your computer's hardware or software and isn't related to Apple's products in any way.

  • What is the warranty for a refurbished iPhone sold by AT&T?

    Considering purchasing a refurbished iPhone from AT&T. Curiously, I noticed refurbished iPhones are not sold online at the Apple Store...
    I'd like to know the official answer for this question, from an Apple representative, or at least referencing a legal document on the Apple site:
    "What is the warranty for a refurbished iPhone?"
    Also, "Can AppleCare be purchased for a refurbished iPhone?"
    Again, I would like Apple's answers to these questions, not AT&T's.
    Thanks.

    But if the phone is refurbished by Apple, shouldn't it have the same warranty as new, as do refurbished iPods, iPads, and Macbooks?

    Cracked screens aren't cover by warranty sadly. That's why you need apple insurance to cover these devices. I've been through 4 iPhone 4's haha.

  • What does the warranty cover for ipad2

    what does the ipad 2 warranty cover

    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications. When new, the warranty coverage is for 1-year, however, you can pay extra for a 2nd year.

  • What is the maximum number of external harddrives?

    I've got about 1600 DVDs and I've started ripping them to an external hard drive (just my favorites) for viewing through iTunes and my AppleTV. Well, my wife thinks its wonderful and wants to put them all on the machine (comes to about 4Tbytes). Is there some limit to the size/number of external harddrives that I can connect to my iMac? By the way, this really rocks as a way to watch movies!
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    If you're talking about USB drives, you can have a maximum of 127 drives (although your system would likely come to a halt long before that limit). For a chain of Firewire drives, you can have 63 drives.
    Bear in mind that you will need separate power for chained devices; you would be able to attach one small USB/Firewire drive powered by the computer, but no more than that.

    hey why_14,
    the warranty will cover that, as for the process it depends on Lenovo in your country.

  • What does the warranty cover exactly?

    Well my itouch just randomly goes dark.... So dark I cant see it. One minute its on then bam it shuts off. Also, the headphones are not as loud. Does my warranty cover this? If so, do I have to travel to an apple retail store or can I lpmail my itouch to them? I have an ipod touch 4g 8 gb.

    You can check the warranty:
    Hardware Warranties
    Basically, it covers defects in manufacture. It does not cover accidental damage like caused by dropping it.
    You can make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store are send it to them, For details see:

  • What is the warranty for a refurbished iPhone 5 sold by Apple Store in Germany ?

  • What is the warranty on a replacement hard drive in a Macbook Pro.

    I had my hard drive replaced less than a year ago, (out of warranty of course) and lo and behold it is doing the same thing again and the apple store is telling me that it is not under warranty and warranty is 90 days. Also says I need a "hard drive bracket" that should have been installed at time of replacement but that is also gonna cost me another $56.00, Maybe I should have went with a Windows computer and avoided all this costly repair on my $3000.00 paper weight.

    I'm not sure exactly what the tech at the apple store was referring to when he mentioned the hd bracket. But I do know he said it includes replacing the wire that connects to the hd which sometimes becomes kinked and causes problems. When I asked him why they didn't replace it at the time of the last hd replacement he said it was not standard procedure at the time, but now Apple wants it replaced anytime a hd is replaced. In my opinion they are admitting that there is a problem and it should be replaced for free, but they don't seem to feel the same. They also said there isn't a known issue with the hd in these units, but it seems kinda weird that if that is whats wrong with mine, it will be the second time and I'm sure I don't have over 100 hours of use on it since it was replaced last time.

  • I just won a Nano - what about the warranty

    Hi,
    I'm sure this is an old question but I need an answer!
    I just won a Nano and am going to give it to a friend. I think you can register without having proof of purchase but what happens if it goes wrong in the first year whilst under warranty.
    Will Apple not want to see proof of purchase which is quite difficult when you won it or were given it as a present.
    Does anyone know.
    Thanks
    Anthony

    When you register it, make sure the registration/warranty date is correct.
    Apple will only want to see proof of purchase if the date is incorrect.

  • If you get a repair what is the warranty after the repair

    is it 90 days?
    i'm repairing the logic board on my macbook pro, since the display flickers when I try and use it. also the cost to repair the logic board is around $300 correct?

    I believe 90 days parts and labor. This is unless the repair is being done on a warranty extension from Apple, then I'm not sure. Ask at the store.
