I’ve developed a tool—you can find it on the Microsoft Store by searching for "Quiet Linux Reader." It has now been updated to its second version; it allows you to read certain Linux disk formats within Windows, recognize Btrfs data, and export files for free.
I have recently purchased some MRT Lab equipment and have run into an issue. I have two older Samsung hard drives that feature a row of four vertical pins; I am unsure how to connect them to establish communication with the software. Could you please provide some guidance? Thank you.

skinbob, Thanks for your reply. However, the circuit board you’ve shown appears to be from a Seagate drive, not a Samsung one. The Samsung circuit board I have here only has two pins.

That should be even easier then, one pin will be TX and the other is RX.

fzabkar, I found an image showing a Samsung hard drive connected to two wires from a USB interface. If you happen to have a front-view photo or images showing more specific details, could you please send them to me? I would greatly appreciate your help. I have just started learning how to repair Samsung and Hitachi hard drives, and I haven't yet mastered the self-calibration process for them. Thank you!
