Can anybody clarify this error?

[Aces5]

I have a HP Pavilion Laptop Product number: 2SS22UA, model: 15-cc154cl, and I did a  HP diagnostic check because They said I had an issue with my hard drive. Sure enough the Short Drive self Test Failed with the following error code:

908JTX-94T9QS-MFPUQK-60UC13.  But I couldn't find any explanation of what this means. 

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get an answer?

Yes, it is a hard drive failure.

The specific coding is used by internal HP Support - any "hidden" meanings are not available to those of us outside of HP.

From HP > CAUTION

Recently, HP has seen an increased number of third-party support websites selling HP driver downloads or diagnostic tools. Many of these websites use the HP trademark symbol and claim to be official HP distributors.

If your product supports your operating system, HP offers your driver and software at no additional cost through the HP website.

Use caution when dealing with any website that asks you to pay for HP driver downloads or tools that claim to diagnose your HP products. These websites might not be affiliated with HP in any way.

Do not install BIOS updates from a motherboard manufacturer's website. Only install BIOS updates from HP. Installing BIOS updates from the motherboard manufacturer can prevent the computer from accepting an HP system recovery. This could result in a loss of data.
