is there a possibility that it is actually true, and they are all empty?

Did some wise guy try to “format and then recover the data” like we’ve heard a hundred times from people when trying to recover a hard drive?

No i am sure that its not the "format and then recover data" type of case.

Its a problem from the SSD but unfortunately that controller is not supported by Acelab.

And i am trying to find if there is another way to recover data.

Thanx

Being SandForce makes it hard. Contact Northwind. They are in Greece but are highly respected for DR. There are not many shops that have, but they do have some SandForce solutions.

It is Sandforce controller rebranded to Toshiba. Common problem.

Maybe recoverable but not DIY.

If data is important then contact Northwind
