Hi everyone i used to use a samsung ssd for my pc now i want to use it on another one and it seems its pins are bent so icant insert it. There are no samsung ssd services in turkey and it would be very risky to give it to a custom pc repairmen since they have high tendencies to steal parts and make things even worse. Now i cant post an image of it bc im on mobile but any help on how to fix them or any links to youtube tutorials will be appreciated since i cant seem to find them on my own

USAFRet :
The 'pins' are in a solid plastic block. How did you do this?
They kinda, uh, aren't? This is an internal ssd so they are quite exposed. By the way just so we are clear about the "pins" i mean the sata connector pins, the yellow-gold painted ones.
USAFRet :
Yeah, they are:
My bad. Just saw the photo. The plastic protection for the pins which is located under them are kind of pryed off. Probably the job of my mother or little brother. But no physical damaga except for the way its bended and the plastix thingies are, well, dont exist

I wouldn't say gone unless the drive has received electric damage caused by the 'pin' damage. Otherwise a new connector block can usually be soldered on or, if your desperate, cables can be directly soldered to those pins or the pcb traces. {Be vary careful doing this, one mis-wire and you can fry everything.}
