QuestionDoes HDD still carry three years of warranty? Pin

Donated, free, Inspiron One (Dell) won't stay up for more than few hours.
After failure ( blue screen) the Setup (F2) shows NO internal HDD.
(Sorry, I have not figured it out on Win 7 how to stop restart after blue screen, so have no chance to read the blue screen)
Usually, not always, the box will recover after taking an over-nite nap.
This piece of cheap(ly build) PC gets pretty warm. So – I figured HDD going south.
Win 7 occasionally, not always, runs Check Disk on start up and reports no problems.

My question to the forum – Dell's “warranty” runs one year, I had HDD failures in past and recall that reputable manufacturer had THREE years warranty on HDD itself.

Am I living a dream or does this manufacturer warranty still applies?

I have no desire to talk to Dell.
