SSD WD Green with SanDisk controller Automatic Solution - How to Get Data Faster
SSD drives use the same NAND memory as USB drives or Memory cards. So VNR could be used for data recovery from that storages too. We have found the solution for a few WD Green SSD disks with SanDisk controllers. The solution for SSD with a capacity ...
VNR File Assembler
NAND controllers write data to memory chips by logical blocks in mixed order. Therefore, recovering files from such mixed dumps would fail as files may begin in one block and continue in another that is located somewhere else, not necessarily after. ...
