I have got SSD & I have checked it on pc3000 udma (I don't have portable & I outsource my work )
SSD stays busy but does not show up typical shorted registers when there is clear electronic issue like short.
But I would like to trace various voltages to confirm the same.
Can someone pls. guide how I can begin using a multimeter ? ( Here I am referring to our own living electronics wikipidia fzabkar who is been immense help when it comes to electronics , I am amazed by his knowledge of the subject & his helping nature. Appreciate it. :-D :good: )
Once its confirmed that all electronics is fine then issue could be in firmware MCU or Nand itself , I can update customer accordingly.
Thank you

Zero Alpha walks you through some Samsung SSD videos on his Youtube channel.

If MCU is not supported by Ace then possibly no one in the world except samsung can recover data unfortunately
