Yups. Dead drive. I’d purchase a replacement. Keep it as an external and use it as a new cline backup.

How old is the dead drive? Depending on age, it might still be under warranty (original or via your credit card’s extended warranty program).

I definitely wouldn’t put another drive into the machine itself.

SSD prices have skyrocketed. 9 months old. Supposedly at least 3 year warranty but seems to be a mystery how to contact the company for replacement, may just write it off as I hate the thought that my data might be recoverable (made peace with that when I bought it for $70 or whatever.)
