    [SOLVED] SSD shows up in Gparted but not in UEFI BIOS - stuck in Aptio setup utility loop

    UPDATE: Took it to a local repair guy. It was a hardware issue. The connecting cable was at fault. I guess the sudden lid closing episode must've caused the thing to move or something. Turns out my HDD had never gone bad in the first place lol. Using it as external with the SATA to USB.

    Should I get a PS2?

I read that it is easy to download games for PS2(without much complications), so that's a plus, 'cause my folks won't let me spend...
