Hi, you moved your SSD without properly shutting down your laptop, which left it in hibernation. When you tried to power it back on, you noticed no power indicator and a strange high-frequency tone. This might be related to the hibernation setting or a short circuit during removal. Your system specs are correct—Dell Inspiron 15 with Windows 11 Home x64.

consider taking out the battery and charger for a short time, then reinstall them and see if it works.

I've already attempted it, but it hasn't started working after about half an hour.
