Like others said, sounds like hardware. But before you toss the drive, you said SSD, if it’s an ssd try different cables connecting to different ports. If it’s nvme try reseating it at least, moving it to another port if you have a 2nd. Just saying that sometimes ports and cables fail, so make sure you rule those out before losing hope.
Also possible it’s a bios thing, like maybe the port itself on got disabled in bios or controller got switched to raid mode.

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.
