cb21910095yJust recently had a similar situation. Boot sector got corrupted for no reason after cloning SSD. Mind you the first restarts were fine, with 2 bootable windows SSDs side-by-side. The smaller SSD was redundant and hence deleted. Now the new one didn't start with 3 MONTHS worth of project code changes! I somehow managed to save the system with the internet.
... And I also realized I keep backups but have no idea how to use them.🤦
So, yeah PUSH YOUR CODE REGULARLY!! Just some advice I read in the depths of the internet. -

Here is my own horror story to cheer you up. I once lost 4 month worth of code and I need to rewrite them. I am just starting out on my programming journey and do not know git even exist.
For a month I only sleep 3 hour a day to rewrite them. On a bright side you have a chance to refactor them.

Forgot to push 30hr of code before moving to a new ssd without backup...
