HDD GURU FORUMS

I have basically quit datarecovery, but get questions from time to time from friends if i can help. Now i have this Micron SSD, the owner har borroved the PC to a friend of him and when he got the PC back something had happened. The friend said he dis some kind of upgrade, but from that noone really know what has happend.
Anyway, i managing to open it in PC3000. (i still hvae this sytem but havent paid support) And i am able to get some of the files out in dataextractor, the other prog dont recognize the SSD. And when i am running RAW-recovery it finds about evrything. But the files look corrupt, some of the files opens, but the rest have faults, meaning that the picture is disturbed, its red all over or have other faults, they are unable to view.
How can i fix this? As i say, i hae\ve PC3000 available, and also MRT lab somewhere.....
Will it work to download something from micron's webpage, and if so, what program?

So in PC3000 Data Extractor, does it show lot of bad sectors (marked black or red).

No bad blocks reported in dataextractor. All green

I find 4 partitions: One fat32, and 3 NTFS. Fisrt NTFS is the one with windows in, 150something in size, one NTFS around 12gb, probably recovery-partition and one NTFS around 500MB, probably the WinRE-partition.

Sounds like the SSD may have had CHKDSK run on it.

ok. Is it possible to fix?

Not really. Are you seeing 'found.000' folders (or similar name)?

No folders or files like that.

Not much more you can do but try several different data recovery softwares on the image and see what each of them find. I presume the main partition wasn't encrypted? BitLocker for example.

I have tried PC3000 dataextractor, recuva and easeus. Pretty much same results. So i think this case is dead....

Try R-Studio, UFS Explorer and RaclaiMe.
They all have demo versions you can use free to test.
Recuva and EaseUS are not professional tools, they are all pretty useless.

did you try to image drive with PC3000 DE and change values under Loss of readiness and change first two to 500 ms
