I cannot get further than GRUB except to rescue mode, when I attempt to boot the main Fedora OS it gets stuck on searching for a disk indefinitely. Gets stuck on Job dev-disk-by\<many symbols>.device/start running (1h / no limit) in the console.
I have a Windows partition on same drive, it also doesn’t boot, it’s rescue command prompt (from where you are instructed to open notepad to rescue files) doesn’t “see” any disk but C: and X: (emerg boot).
I tried booting this machine with two live OS USBs: Fedora and SystemRescue. Neither of them list the SSD (or anything but the USB drive FS itself) in lsblk or the file manager.
Due to lack of storage mediums, I haven’t done a backup in a while. How can I rescue the files? Many passwords are also stuck there, in Firefox manager I wasn’t able to sync due to losing access to the 2FA email.
As I wrote, GRUB with all customisations and rescue modes stored on this drive for both Windows and Linux work fine, so I find it unlikely to be a connector problem. Unless such a problem may lead to part of drive working fine and the other not. When SSD is out of socket, BIOS refuses to boot at all and makes loud sounds.
