The 1MB-Files from SAMSUNG are XORED Looks like the FW itself is in a serial flash on the backside. I guess the 128KB at address 0 is a bootloader. JTAG works stable up to about 400kHz |

ahhh - "Temperature sensor" - NOT Flash.... Finally found the "lost manual". Also found the de-obfuscator. So not just a simple XOR. Looked to me like that because of all those "0x10" Hmmm - but where is firmware located within the chip? |

Yes. I compiled the version from GITHUB. Found that link in the "MissingManual". https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ddcc/ ... /samsung.c I found two firmware-Versions in the internet: EXT49D0Q and EXT08D0Q but it looks like I have an earlier one. 0x5c000 from the image is mapped to 0 in then Controllers addressspace but starts to differ (a little bit) from about 0xba0. The latest version differs most. I am no expert in multi-core controllers as well as no ARM expert.. Maybe I am one when finished this |

The SSD controller suffers from media corruption. Media Corruption occurs within the chip that controls the connection between the drive and the computer. Corruption can modify or destroy important information which can render a storage device inoperable and inaccessible. |
