| Post subject: | Reading Micro SD and SD in SPI mode |
Hi everyone! So i have this micro SD that is half dead. It only shows partition right after ejecting. I have tried many different readers, PC3000 Portable USB port... Sadly this is a Chinese card, so it doesn't have the pinout for PC3000 Flash recovery. And i believe the Micro SD is still alive. So I want to try a more simpler approach first So i came across this Post from Zero Alpha Using SPI with Spider board https://zeroalpha.com.au/services/data-recovery-blog/sd/gigastone-micro-sd-data-recovery-full-hd-video-16gb My questions are: Do i really need the Spider board to be able to read in SPI mode or just the normal PC3000 Flash board will do? And i also came through a post reading Micro SD and SD through SPI or a RaspberryPie or a Teeny But the guide is old and unclear https://tech.tiefpunkt.com/2013/08/sd-card-recovery-using-an-arduino/ So can anyone help or guide me through this please?! Many Thanks! |

i would solder wires to the connector, tinning only a small area at the distant end of the contacts as a minimal invasive operation. Or use an adapter like they used, probably available as an arduino board or similar. The second link seems useful, you need to dive a bit into arduino but you can check if any data is accessible thru the method. dumping an SD card over serial port as hex would take ages though, so some different approach is necessary. pepe |

Once i did a mSD via SPI. I used EasyJtag. As it was Samsung EVO there was no other way. It took over a month to read it. No other tool was able to read anything. In my experience SPI hardly ever works with mSD. |
