Press and hold the Fn key on your Dell Inspiron laptop and while holding the Fn key, press the ‘Power’ button The system enters into the diagnostic mode. You can follow along with the wizard and allow the diagnostic tool to run a scan If the diagnostic scan also displays that the hard drive is not found or detected, proceed to the next troubleshooting method to inspect for physical connection.
Check If the Drive is Properly Seated and Well Connected If you have never dismantled a laptop before, it is recommended that you should avoid this step to cause any further damage.
Disassembling a computer requires proper equipment like a right screwdriver, antistatic band, etc. otherwise, you might cause further damage to your laptop.
Still, if you want to risk it, use a clean cloth; gently clean the connectors and then reconnect the hard drive. Turn on your system and check if the error persists.
