Quoted from edcianci:1st time in a good year or 2 - maybe longer i went to play it and it won't boot
Solid state drives normally retain data for only a couple years with no power. I'd check the drive for errors and try reloading the software.

If the drive was off for two years and 'forgot' its data repartitioning and reloading may be all that's needed. Many standard hard drive tools can test it.
Edit: If you go into the BIOS in the hdd section and the motherboard shows the drive but the OS won't see it that's a sign it may still be good.
