Fixing This:

The Question Mark will stay there eternally, until it is fixed.

Two Things...

I. Go here: If your Mac Starts Up to a Question Mark - Apple Support


II. Mount the Drive:

Boot into Recovery Mode (Hold Down: [Command + R] upon boot). Then, using Disk Utility, see if the Hard Drive is seen. If it is, then see if you need to click the “Mount’ button for it. Try rebooting once more. If of no success, then click unmount button, and then the mount button. Try rebooting once more.
