Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hello! I've come into an issue with my laptop. Once i booted it, i got an error message saying, "HARD DISK ERROR". I ran a quick test from system diagnostics on it, and a message appeared saying pretty much the same thing. When i try to run the "disk management" my disk 0 - unknown is unallocated and not initialized, my disk 0 is missing and i really need to bring back my data from it. I want to include that i haven't done any physical damage to the laptop, it just suddenly appeared once i started it. please help ;((
