If NAND isn't dead yet there is a chance. It needs to be checked if there's no other shortage that causes the heat. Glue can be cut and controller removed. Last resort would be NAND transfer to identical PCB. |

Thanks melvin I will give it a try , where is this SSD specific FW & encryption information stored , Is MCU has role to decide only wear levelling ? |

If MCU cannot be removed then what will be alternate.What Guru's like Arvika would have done ? |

I made many test with this model, so far not found good solution, but I do not give up. |

If Arvika Says its so difficult then possibly no one in the world including ace might be able to recover data from this SSD. |
