2015 bmw m4 navigation not loading

a month or so ago my navigation system stopped working. it happened right after i got an sos system warning which i had not received before. there was also a clicking noise, as if attempts to read a mechanical hard drive were failing. today i did not hear this noise. the navigation screen reads "starting navigation system" which never progresses. addtionally, the on-board manual is not accessible giving an "opening owners manual..." indication (perhaps suggesting a storage issue).

Please let me know if you have any thoughts as to the cause and fix for this. thank you in advance!!

HDD disk failure.
You need to change it - you can PM me.
I'll send you correct HDD to buy, then can initialize to NBT remotely.

Wouldn't it be easier for OP to buy a replacement head unit? At least that would have a HDD with the basic software on it already, and you would just need to code it to OP's car.
