Adapter for Samsung Slim LIF Drive?

August 24th, 2020, 17:23

Hi everyone,
I'm an IT guy in the Cleveland area. I recently was tasked with recovering data off of this very interesting "Samsung Slim LIF 128GB MLC". I ordered a ZIF/LIF 24 pin adapter on eBay and the ribbon is too wide. I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for a adapter to SATA from this drive? I found a topic on this forum about it from 10 years ago, so I didn't want to Necro it . =)

There is no adapter and finding a working compatible laptop is really tough, unless you still have some at your company allowing you to simply throw in the SSDs in and access the files.
Otherwise, if you are good at soldering, here you go:
