In the Drive self test I get failure with the following code: ru1kj8-8jx9r0-gxggq1-60e603. What does this mean?

Hi:

 

The error code reported, Hard Disk 1 SMART Hard Drive Detects Imminent Failure, means the SSD is about to fail, or has failed, needs to be replaced, and the operating system reinstalled.

 

If you can still get into Windows, back up any files you want to save onto a portable hard drive.

 

Then replace the SSD.
