OK, I wiped the $SVS area on that one you uploaded and flashed that, now there's no password again. It did the 4 digit pin, so PRAM reset 3x done, connect to internet and try to install the OS again, again no hard drive appears. I have no idea what to do now. lol
Edit: Tried Windows installer, same issue. Tried diskutil list, drive doesn't show up. I'm starting to think it's the drive itself, but alas, I don't have another to test with because the connector for the drive is weird, it's not a m key or b key. Could clearing the $SVS area make the hard drive no longer detectable??? Is there some password on it or something?

OK, I'm now fairly certain that hard drive is bad and that's why it won't detect it. I decided to pull it and test the caps on the hard drive, and there appears to be 2 shorts. I'll update after I replace it. I'd try repairing it, but I wouldn't want to use it even if I could fix it, so I'm not going to waste my time. I plan on grabbing a Sintech NGFF M.2 nVME SSD Adapter Card and using a regular NVME drive with Cantina.
