Typically when your computer is getting close to its storage device being full, you will be warned by your operating system about this. Your system will start to slow down as there will be no space for the OS to store or retrieve its temporary data. If your disk space becomes low enough, your system will grind to almost a halt and you will be forced to clear up space.

What does it mean when your computer says hard drive not found?
The best way, I think to answer that is to define what a computer (or in this case the motherboard of the computer) needs to find or identify a hard disk. A hard disk needs a power source, a connector to attach it to the motherboard, and a controller to talk to the microprocessor of the computer. If any of these things fail the hard disk will not function and the computer will not recognize it. In general when you see the message "hard disk not found" its because the computer can't recognize the hard disk. This can be from a bad cable (that connects the hard disk to the motherboard), no power to the hard disk, or a failed controller. In my experience, its usually a bad cable but there are times when the hard disk itself will fail. Generally, hard disk cables are far more fragile than hard disks.

No, a hard disk drive is not a part of the motherboard. The mother board is the actual processing unit of the cpu.

The hard disk is where all the pictures, file, movies, documents etc. are stored in the computer. These files are of course accessed by the motherboard as nothing can happen without the motherboard!
