HDD GURU FORUMS

Hi,

I hope you are doing great.

I have this SSD Storage Micro of 256GB (Lingston Technology) i have connected to a adapter SSD to SATA, it is very hot and PC3000 wont autodetect.

Not sure next steps and it would be great a suggestion.

Thank you for the help.

Best regards,

Hi olinyer, Have you got a picture of it? Which part is getting hot? Main controller, memories?

A photo of the adapter would be advisable, IMHO. It could be that the wrong adapter is being used.

adding pic.

the memories (two NAND Chips) are the one getting very hot

i thought in the kind of adapter as well

thank you for the help.

Best regards,

Hello! I can t realize looking at the pictures...but were the memories reworked (unsoldered and re-soldered)?
Only 2 of the 4 memories are getting hot?

Best,

Here are photos of the adapter:

The voltage at the tab of U1 (LT1084-33) should be +3.3V.

AFAICT, the SSD (Kingston SMSR150S3/256G mSATA) is a RAID with a separate SSD on each side.

The adapter expects to see a single SSD. Therefore I would be very concerned with the pinout. Perhaps it is non-standard? I would determine the ground pins with a multimeter, and also confirm the +3.3V pins by testing for continuity with U1.
