My internal HD dissapeared!

My internal HD disappeared out of nowhere 1 night. The next day, my MacBook pro 2011 13" wouldn't turn on. Finally I got it to turn on, and I am using my cloned external drive currently to access my files. What do I do?

MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.14

MacBook Air 2013 internal hdd is hiding? My MacBook Air 2013 will not boot and displays the file icon for lack of OS bootable drive. I am able to enter the recovery OS and through disk utility I can see the 2GB startup recovery image but that is it. No internal SSD anywhere to be found. Also not found through terminal. Is this a dead SSD issue? I can’t understand how it can see a 2GB recovery partition but not the rest of the hard drive. Interesting side show; the track pad works only intermittently and does not allow for clicking. I am able to get around this by using a mouse.
