Sandisk CFast Card

January 24th, 2019, 14:30

Anyone worked on one of these, I only see one reference here and that was just a formatting issue. The outer casing is much more solid than a standard CF Card and maybe difficult to break apart. Also being a Sandisk I wanted to ask if anyone has done a successful chip off recovery for it.

It is actually an SSD that requires a CFast to SATA adapter. They are a PITA to get into, almost impossible to reassemble afterwards. Once inside, you can follow the steps you normally would for that controller...assuming that it is one that is supported by PC3K-SSD.

Any tips on breaking in?
I do see references to successful recoveries with FE as well which is good news.

Chip ID: 45 3C 95 93.
2 chips with 2 banks each.
Chip is not in PC3K database.
Chip in FE has one bank of 32GB, this has 2 banks of 16GB.
Chip in VNR does ID and gets both crystals after rotation.

Should be possible solve by chip-off.
