After swapping around some sata cables and trying different hard drives, bios is no longer recognizing any. This might be good news. It could mean the motherboard is dying and my ssd data perfectly fine. I'd much rather have a bill to pay than unrecoverable projects. Or:
I don't know how the internals work for a laptop. Is it still the same sata and power connection?

Yes. The only requirement for a drive to work on a laptop is to be a 2.5" drive rather than a full-size (3.5") drive. All SATA SSDs are 2.5", so you're good to go for sure.

All you have to do is slide it in like this. Of course, the placement of the HDD slot depends on the specific laptop you have, but it'll work for sure. Just search for a teardown of your laptop so you can see where the HDD slot is and access it.pic.twitter.com/dpmhSnL6oe
