And then, suddenly, there was a problem

by
When i opened my laptop this morning and turned it on... suddenly it didn't want to work.

After about an hour of messing with it and trying to work things out, including some failed disk repairs and a lot of research, I came to two conclusions.

a: a failure of the SSD, which is prevent bootup and repair.
b: a failure of disk encrpytion, which is bamboozling the computer by not allowing itself to be unlocked.

...either way, they booked me in for a repair appointment this afternoon, and meanwhile I'm imaging the drive to an external HD.


But yeah... big concern. I so totally hope its not the SSD failing, because I'm out of warranty now =(

They had to pull the old SSD and replace it with a new one. Data recovery not possible :(
