Possible to revive SSD?

doubledeez · Nov 19, 2013

I had my sandisk ultra 240gb ssd die a few monthes ago and just moved on and bought a new hdd, but I wanna see if there's still anyway I can retrieve my data. Basically what happens is it boots and then once boot windows itll hang and then evantually bsod and won't even dump. If I try access it as a secondary drive, it'll appear but die the moment you try to access it (files) and dissapear.

Any suggestions?

data recovery but that will be expensive. I doubt the old freezer trick will work on an ssd but give it a try helped me on my last failing mech HDD

Did you run a diagnostic HD Sentinel? You need to download the free trial version. You can use it as long as you want, it just makes you wait a few seconds when it loads. As soon as it does load, you will see an overview of each drive in your PC. What is displayed is actually the drive's S.M.A.R.T. attributes. It will show a lot of data including the health of the drive, if it has bad sectors how many days it has been in use and how many days it has left. If anything it is a good tool to have for your new drive and will give you definitive yes or no on whether your old SSD is truly dead or not.

If your drive has bad sectors, you should do a check disk with a scan and recovery of bad sectors option by right clicking on the drive, selecting properties and clicking on the tools tab.

can't even do that the moment something accesses the drive it dissapears

I would try updating the firmware. Perhaps something glitched and the new or refreshed code will bring it back.

other than that theres always the xbox 'reflow the solder' trick that might revive it if its a solder connection issue. Have a heatgun? I would only do this after I've written the drive off as a total loss.
