Hi

If you can get into BIOS (or UEFI) and no hard disk shown
the most likely thing that hard drive has come out of SATA socket (both power & data)

Find out how to get access and push it back into the SATA socket

User guide may show this or google for instructions on internet or video on youtube

If this is not the cause problem is more serious, possibly SATA connector or socket broken
