  So I happen to be messing around in the inside of this expensive laptop and end up damaging the hard drive cable, as you see in the picture. Should I not be worried or do I need to buy a replacement?

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions.
 

I would like to assist

 

If the Hard drive is getting detected and if the performance of the Notebook is fine, then nothing to work

 

But if you wish to get it replaced, you can purchase a Hard drive cable locally from any computer store or follow the instructions I sent in the private message
