Yes, I can (for 2.5" WD SMR drives)
Trim is still a bitch though.
I can do partial recovery after re-format (with file names and folders structure), even if the drive is encrypted.
I recovered several cases after trim and in reality it looks like large files (like videos) always have unreadable chunks in them. And many files could be lost. But if it's pictures/documents then results could be decent.

If it's not trim but damaged translator then results are usually much better.
