During reboot I got an "Imminent Hard drive failure" message.
Ran UEFI diagnostics and got an error code of "GU6K8K-96UAA7-GXGJ3G-60WD03"
Because my warranty expired on 8/8/20 Support Assistant won't translate the code.
Solved! Go to Solution.

@JGramer1 , welcome to the forum.
HP doesn't provide us with this information. However, the message is telling you that your hard drive is about to fail and you should backup your personal information. Then, you can replace the drive or wait until it completely fails. I recommend that you replace the drive.
If the drive is not a SSD, I highly recommend that you replace it with one. A SSD boot drive will boost system performance considerably.
For future reference, when requesting help you should always include the Product Number of the computer and/or monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications of them.
