What’s going on here? A week or so ago this showed up and haven’t been able to turn on my laptop since. Some hardware issue?

If it a failing disk, and you dont have any backup, and its important data.
Have a look at a product callef SpinRite. It may bring the disk back from the dead long enough to get the data off

Then 3 2 1 backup strategy for your future needs.
Don’t waste your money. If the data is really important, send the disk to a data recovery service to avoid risking further damage. If it’s only somewhat important, use a (free!) tool like ddrescue to attempt to recover the data.
