You have two very different issues here:
1) SATA drive in the keyboard base
2) Hardware not working
In terms of the first, if the drive gets corrupted in any way, Windows will drop the drive letter and after that, you won't "see" the drive even though it is still there. What I suggest is that you download and install MiniTool Partition Wizard. It will "see" all the drive devices attached to the PC. You get it from here: https://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html
In terms of the second, If you CAN, to check out hardware problems, you would need to be able run hardware diagnostics by pressing the Esc key repeatedly and then, when the HP Startup Menu appears, select Diagnostics (usually F2) and let it run.
