I'm thinking that the SSD died.

And this is why you run clonezilla from time to time 😎

I use Duplicati evert week, so we're good.

Seems that way, except that it's recognized by the UEFI. It seems like the boot image or partition may have become damaged or corrupted. Maybe you can boot into a live USB and get an fdisk read on the SSD and see if you can mount the partitions.

Thanks. Bad superblock, tried fixing, no luck.

Yeah, going to be for Monday - Luckily I have ALL the back-ups at work on two different NAS'. And this "old" laptop is 2019, so not too bad.
