Sorry for the click baity title there.
Anyway, long story short my computer is infected by one of those thing. And I only realize the effect the next morning, the hard drive is unreadable by the system.
I really hope "reinstalling windows" Would be my absolute last resort. So I seek guidance in front of IT Gods, and hope for the best
What I have done so far :
In case the hardware matter, the infected drive is Seagate momentus 5400, 500gb. It's from old laptop, which then repurposed for a desktop pc

What I have done so far :
- Isolating my computer from the Lan, the Net.
- Checking any other possible hardware problem like ports and cable and everything works just fine.
- Opening the infected drive in other (3) computers but the bios also can't detect it.
- Looking for any solution online but since ransomwares have so many iterations which have various kind of aftermath, I can't find a specific "keyword" To look for my problem.
- I've been using "boot usb drive" (Idk what you guys call it but I assume you get the idea) to perform various action like disk checking, startup repair, checking via cmd but nothing happened
- I end up here.
