Would like to install the latest version of Windows 10 but it fails because Windows 10 drivers are not available. When will they be available for download and installation?

More details, please.

Two possibilities:
* never, because the necessary device-drivers are included on the Windows 10 installation media, and therefore HP will not duplicate the effort, by making the same device-drivers available for download via the HP Support web-site;
* never, because your computer is too old.
Your computer: HP Z600 Workstation was released in February 2009:
http://www.hp.com/canada/products/landing/workstations/files/z600_datasheet_feb09.pdf
It was originally shipped with Windows Vista Business, and with downgrade rights to Windows XP Professional.
The HP Support web-site, containing software and device-drivers:
https://support.hp.com/ca-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-z600-workstation/3718663
supports Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8, by offering device-drivers for those operating systems.
Note that the above web-site offers a BIOS update dated in 2016.
Try updating the BIOS, and then retrying the installer.
RE: "too old" --- from "HP Products Tested with Windows 10"
https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/c05195282
is the statement:
HP PCs manufactured before August of 2013 [such as yours]
might not have a complete set of hardware and/or drivers required to use all of the features in Windows 10.
•HP is not testing or developing Windows 10 drivers for these PC products.
•If you choose to use Windows 10 some features, applications, and connected devices might not work as expected.
