    Boot Camp into Windows works without issue so there appears to be no obvious issue with the Windows OS.

    Error loading operating system_


    I installed Parallels a few days ago and it worked without issue.
    Recently I got the Unable to connect Hard Disk 1.
    Now I'm getting the above error.

    I don't see any clear way to trouble shoot or fix this issue. I'm not sure what caused it either so I'm not sure what to do to prevent it from happening again.
