macOS Installer showing S.M.A.R.T. Error

[Ishan Agarwal]

I am running my mac on OS X El Capitan Version 10.11.6. I wanted to download macOS Sierra from the App Store. I downloaded the installer and when it asked that on which disk do u wanna install, it showed what is shown in picture. Please help and tell me what to and what the error is.

It's a hardware issue. You'll need to replace the drive.

What Mac do you have, please?

It is iMac 21.5inch Late 2013 model. I have apple care which extended my warranty to 3 yrs. so would they fix it for free?

Yeah they'll replace the drive for you free of charge, providing it's still in cover of course. You can check if you're still in warranty by entering your serial number here: https://checkcoverage.apple.com/gb/en/
