What are my chances of recovering the data from inside the NVMe SDD? It's a 950 EVO from Samsung.

Situation:
I didn't realize that after I opened a can of Coke a little bit had gone below the laptop.

After an hour working, a blue screen appears. Thinking it was an error or a crash of W10, I attempted to reset a few times with no success. Then i proceeded to lift the laptop and I realized what happened.

I cleaned the Coke from below and from inside the cover, blew some cold air to dry the remaining liquid. Disconnected battery, AC, RAM, both drives M.2 nvme and SATA.

Now I'm waiting for it to dry, I'm hoping for the Best.

It could survive, if you are lucky enough.

Thing is, if anything dies tho, you can't use the SSD anymore, sadly.

However, if the memory chips survive, you might be able to send it somewhere and try to recover your data back.

rip laptop :(

The aftermath was this:
-Motherboard lived for one extra month.
-Two 16GB DIMMs died at the moment.
-M.2 NVMe is still alive, but i had to clone it elsewere because there aren't yet any commercial USB enclosures for this technology.
