⚠️ Case Example: Lenovo Desktop – SSD Stopped Working Without Warning
A recent customer reported that their Lenovo desktop PC had powered down unexpectedly and failed to boot up again. After visiting a local computer repair shop, they were told that the internal SSD had failed, possibly due to a power surge or firmware corruption.
Symptoms included:
-
System not detecting the SSD in BIOS
-
SSD not responding via external adapters
-
No power activity from the drive
-
Data completely inaccessible
This type of failure is not uncommon with SSDs, which can stop functioning without warning due to voltage spikes or firmware-level malfunctions.
🛠️ Our Professional SSD Data Recovery Process
At Aberdeen Data Recovery, we handle SSD failures like this with precision and care. Here’s how we professionally recover data from a non-responsive SSD:
1. Initial Diagnostic & Power Analysis
-
SSD tested using non-invasive voltage tools to assess response levels.
-
Determined that the controller chip was unresponsive due to power surge damage.
2. Firmware & Controller Investigation
-
Firmware corruption suspected; drive placed in safe-read mode using vendor-specific tools.
-
Controller activity assessed using diagnostic software and oscilloscopes.
3. NAND Chip Removal
-
With the controller deemed irreparable, NAND flash memory chips were removed under microscope in our ISO-certified cleanroom.
-
Chips cleaned and prepared for raw readout.
4. Raw Data Extraction & Error Correction
-
Binary data extracted from the NAND using chip-reading hardware.
-
Proprietary ECC (Error Correction Code) algorithms applied to rebuild fragmented or corrupted data segments.
5. File System Rebuild
-
Data recompiled into original structure, including file and folder hierarchy.
-
Full integrity checks performed to verify completeness of documents, images, databases, and software.
6. Secure Delivery
-
Recovered files delivered on a new external drive with encrypted protection.
