When HDD seems to be faulty

HDD replacement
The HDD of the unit is a consumable part that will need
periodic replacement. When operating at room
temperature, a normal replacement cycle will be about
two years, or 10,000 hours. However, this represents
only a general guideline and does not imply that the life
expectancy of this part is guaranteed. Even when
operating the unit at the temperature within
recommended operating range, the higher the ambient
temperature at which the unit is operated, the shorter the
life expectancy. Regarding part replacement, consult
your Sony dealer or a Sony service representative.
On cleaning
If the casing or panel is dirty, wipe it gently with a soft
dry cloth. In the event of extreme dirt, use a cloth
steeped in a neutral detergent to remove the dirt, then
wipe with a dry cloth. Applying alcohol, thinner,
insecticides, or other volatile solvents may result in
deforming the casing or damaging the finish.
