What the heck just happened my pc crashed and HARD DISK NOT DETECTED

#

swapping it with another ssd works tho.

Likely that either your drive died, or the connection/port the drive is connected to died. Swap the boot drive to another connection if you can, or test it on another PC to troubleshoot

all I want is just my data back

#

I mean it spins and also gets hot

#

tried using another sata cable

#

tried the laptop's port

#

I also tried bios changing

#

windows froze and I restarted it and I saw this

#

here's the info btw

#

is it recoverable by a professional?

No way to know without a recovery professional's assessment, but recovery services are often quite expensive

Well

#

I sure need my data back

#

Regardless of what happens, I extremely recommend getting a backup solution for vital data

The chip inside is just dead and needs a donor

#

The smallest chip thing

#

With 4 connectors

Apparently it's called rom chip
