Sadly to say: Most of the time the 24 char disk failure id indicates the HDD is failing and it needs to be replaced.. Is it still under warranty ? If NOT, you have to replace yourself then rebuild your machine.
For (original) Windows 10/11. please use Cloud Recovery tools

It can still boot up if I use a bootable USB right? Because I booted it up and it showed the black screen with the windows icon and a spinning circle underneath and it just went on forever. But without the USB it cant make it to that screen so I feel like I am getting somewhere am I correct?
