    Check the hard drive with the manufacturer's diagnostic tools.

    As theog suggested the boot volume would indicate your machine is having issues reading/accessing your hard drive, this could be because of an error or the fact the disk is faulty
    Following one of the links and running a diagnostic on your machine will tell you more
