Question Laptop can't find storage device and shows "Reboot and select proper boot device"

Hi my laptop just randomly stopped working when I went to turn it on this morning. It keeps showing the screenshot posed below regarding rebooting.

I looked in the bios also and no drives at all have been found which is extremely strange. I screwed off the back of the laptop and have seen near the storage device that some cables look loose. I've also added this screenshot below. Is there anyone else thats had the same problem and fixed it? or any solutions at all would be greatly appreciated.

Most likely your HDD has died.

Some loose wires wrapped in electrical tape. Not sure for purpose of those. One with blue electrical tape might be from wifi card.

I don't see anything loose there.

Most likely your HDD has died.

So I'd just replace the HDD?

Sure. Replace it with SSD.
