Sandisk SSD Plus 240GB Not accessible but detected, though only showing as 1GB. Hex view shows the same small amount of data for every sector. Presume this is an issue communicating with the NAND storage? Is this recoverable without specialist tools? I'm competent with board repair, soldering/BGA work, moving chips to donor board, etc. Thanks.

It's not talking to the NAND, I suppose theoretically the problem could be a physical one but in absence of a physical issue you will not get anywhere without more advanced tools. It's appears a SM2246xx controller so you'd need to check if PC3000 can handle that (I don't know, I don't have it).

The "data" is an Identify Device block.

PC3000 job. If you're doing this commercially ? Yyou really should find a dr pro as a partner, we don't bite and leave plenty of room for you to put a decent margin on for just dropping a drive in the post.
