My SSD crashed.
Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Single Unit Version Internal Solid State Drive MZ-7TE250BW
It could no longer be seen by the BIOS. I sent it to "experts" (service) for recovery. They say
"Drive MCU is dead (direct short), uses encryption, Chip off not possible. Not able to recover "
I email Samsung support, and they said
"Unfortunately if you are not able to recover your data at a Data Recovery Center then there would be no other options in recovering your data. "
Am I out of luck, or is there any possibility of having it recovered?
If not, can some one explain why encryption makes Chip off not possible? (I.e. why can't I get an identical drive and swap memory chips?)
