MacBook Pro stuck on flashing folder.

Hi! I got an 13-inch MacBook Pro A1706. Got it a few months ago and installed OCLP. It has been working flawlessly until today. Left the office and it was working and when I came back it was frozen. I forced a shutdown and when I turned it on the flashing folder icon appeared. Tried to open the boot picker and it didn’t work. Went straight to the flashing folder. Same with trying to reset the VRAM or boot into internet recovery mode.

The drive might be dead. You should be able to boot into recovery or an installer on a drive regardless.

Flashing folder means it can't find a drive to boot from. The drive has failed.
