@Yekeen Ajeigbe: if you want to be certain that your laptop survives Ubuntu installation, install it in the CSM mode (BIOS compatibility mode - should be an option in your system BIOS configuration). As many people pointed out here, laptops do get bricked under certain circumstances in the UEFI mode, even when booting into Windows.
