My laptop was unable to boot and having tested for issues I've found that the Hard Drive 1 has failed (Failure ID M4U02M-8T5A3L-MFPUQK-60QR03). How do i fix this? This is my main machine so ideally needs fixing instead of replacing

Hi:
What is the product number of your notebook?
Use this guide to find that information.

The error code means the drive has failed and needs to be replaced, but some models come with an eMMC drive and those may not be able to be replaced.

You're very welcome.
Below is the link to the specs for your notebook. The drive is replaceable.

Below is the link to the service manual, where you can find the hard drive removal and replacement procedure.

After you replace the drive, you can reinstall W10 by using another Windows PC and a 32 GB USB flash drive to create a bootable recovery drive with the HP Cloud recovery tool.
Here is an info link for how to use that utility...
