ASUS ROG laptop with Windows 10 turning on to BIOS, cannot find HDD

My laptop (ASUS ROG Windows 10, about 10 years old now) started updating late on 10/17/25, the light was bothering my roommate so I picked it up and moved it into another room to let it finish updating. 

I came into the room yesterday morning and saw that it was on the lock screen, so I left for work and didn't touch it. 

Yesterday evening the screen was off so I turned it back on, but it just turned on to the BIOS. When looking under boot options there's no HDD to select, which seems to be one of the big fixes for this issue. Is it possible there's a way to fix this or is my HDD broken to the point of looking into data recovery? Or is data recovery even possible with the computer not even recognizing the HDD? 

Thank you
