As stated, I have a Legion 5 sl 14APH8, the laptop worked fine for almost a year before giving out today where whilst typing the computer display suddenly shut off, I was worried and thought a powercycle would fix it, but I got the EFU PXE Network error due to bios no longer recognizing my SSD. This is the stock SSD.

Currently at my wit's end as I don't want to lose my work. If someone can give me advice in what to do that'd be great. Already opened the device to reseat but no luck.

If you have another device that you can test the ssd in then do so just to make sure it’s actually the problem.

Tested it in both slots SSD slots. I can try slipping it into an enclosure as a final check. If the SSD is dead, since I still have warranty. Is it possible for me to get another SSD from lenovo?

#

I'm legit P.O'ed if it is dead though. Because I have months of work on this thing.

Do they preinstall the appropriate software, or do I gotta flash that myself?

This i’m not sure about

Alright, I'll look into data recovery options then as it seems like the worst case scenario is true.
