Question Possible to recover deleted files after cloning SSD?

[Wyrmwind]

Hi, when I got my 2TB SSD I cloned my old SSD onto it following the steps in this video:

There are a bunch of old Valorant clips that I deleted from the old SSD before cloning it that I'd like to recover to remember the simpler times lol. I don't have the old SSD anymore, so is it possible to get those clips back onto my new SSD with a recovery software or are they long gone?

Whatever you deleted did not transfer through the clone.

Unless your software has the function, and you selected it, of a sector by sector Forensic clone.
Unlikely you did that, though.


And even ignoring the clone operation, unlikely they would still be recoverable on the old drive after you had deleted them long ago.

TRIM would have rendered your data unrecoverable.
