Flashing folder with question mark for multiple drives
Hi all,
I have a MacBook Pro with a flashing question mark in the folder and does not continue to boot.
I replaced the hard drive and it worked for maybe 1-2 weeks before having the same problem and refusing to boot. I don't have backups of the drive and don't care for the data on it. Just want to get it working first.
I've tried PRAM and SMC reset to no avail. I tried apple diagnostic and that said either something wrong with the charger (highly doubt it as charger is an Apple unit), or drive failure (code VDH002). I tried verifying the disk in Disk Utility and it said to repair. I tried repairing it and it said "Error: Partition map repair failed while adjusting structures to fit current whole disk size."
**While typing that result, the Macintosh HD disappeared from the disk util sidebar. Not sure what it means but I thought I'd mention it.**
Please let me know what can be done. Appreciate the help! :)
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Hi Dan, I changed back the computer because I am 100% sure of the model. The number is A1502 EMC 2835.
I thought it might be drive (SSD) failure so I replaced the part with this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0178T..., another SSD for the computer, not HDD.
In this model, the SSD attaches straight to the motherboard so there is not cable to replace.
