Storage Solutions Windows Disk diagnosis error

[techygeek]

I got this error while i was using my PC regarding disk failure

the description in the event viewer is as follows:

Windows Disk Diagnostic detected a S.M.A.R.T. fault on disk ST3320613AS ATA Device (volumes D:\;E:\;F:\;G:\;H:\;C:\). This disk might fail; back up your computer now. All data on the hard disk, including files, documents, pictures, programs, and settings might be lost if your hard disk fails. To determine if the hard disk needs to be repaired or replaced, contact the manufacturer of your computer. If you can't back up (for example, you have no CDs or other backup media), you should shut down your computer and restart when you have backup media available. In the meantime, do not save any critical files to this disk.

The hdd is still under warranty.
What should i do??

Just to be sure, google and download HD tune and run an error scan. Check the "health" tab as well. If the health status isn't good and if the error scan detects bas sectors, the next option is simply to backup the data and send the dist for RMA.
