It sounds like the hard drive might have been damaged from the impact but there are a couple of things you can check. First you will need to remove the hard drive cover at the bottom of the notebook. Then verify that the hard drive is properly connected. You might want to remove the hard drive and then re-connect it then see if the hard drive is recognized again. You could also remove the drive and install it into a desktop pc to verify the drive is functional. If the drive works in another pc then the motherboard for the notebook might have been damaged from the impact. Hopefully you will find it is just the hard drive was disconnected from dropping the notebook and that is a simple fix.
