    I did install timeshift but I stupidly the backup also was on the same HDD, as I've never thought things will go wrong with the entire disk

    I had a good experience with them before but in changing my screen and hygiene but not so technical issue like that. I hope they're at my expectations this time too.

    I'll consider switching to Linux Mint as I can see it's so popular too. Just after I got everything ok. But I do have a question, could all this mess happened because I used to make my ubuntu theme looks like Mac OS? I mean like the video below or it's not related?

    I've never used any other flavour of Linux so far. But I guess I'll give it a try. Not sure, but I think that drive is about four years now.

    No, I'll see what I can do today in the repair centre. Hopefully it can be saved.

    No worries. I'll take it to the repair center today and see what can be done. As I'm not an expert, I'll discuss this idea of swaping the controller board with the technician.
