At Coventry Data Recovery, we specialise in advanced SSD recovery solutions for all Acer laptop models, including systems affected by sudden solid-state drive (SSD) failure. With 25 years of experience, our in-house engineers use industry-standard cleanroom environments and forensic imaging technology to retrieve data safely—even from SSDs incorrectly diagnosed as unrecoverable.
🛠 Common Symptom: Sudden SSD Failure with No Warning
This scenario often occurs when an Acer laptop:
- Fails to boot without prior symptoms
- Is not recognised in BIOS or by disk management tools
- Powers on, but the drive shows 0MB capacity
- Fails after battery removal, shutdown, or power loss
- Is misdiagnosed by other recovery firms as having mechanical damage
⚙️ Technical Recovery Process: Acer SSD Failure
SSD failures related to NAND degradation, controller issues, or power regulation failure require non-destructive forensic methods. Here’s how Coventry Data Recovery addresses these types of recoveries step-by-step:
1. Initial Inspection and Electrical Testing
- The SSD is removed from the Acer laptop and tested outside of the system.
- Bench-level diagnostics are performed to confirm whether the controller, power circuitry, or NAND flash is at fault.
- If the SSD is undetectable, firmware access is attempted using low-level diagnostic ports (e.g., UART, JTAG).
2. Controller and NAND Analysis
- Using chip-off or direct-to-flash methods, we test NAND ICs for physical degradation or electrical damage.
- If controller failure is confirmed (common in Phison, Silicon Motion, or SandForce-based drives), we analyse memory mapping using reference dumps from our internal SSD controller database.
3. Firmware and Translation Layer Repair
- If firmware corruption is detected, we emulate the controller in a virtual environment and attempt to reconstruct the FTL (Flash Translation Layer).
- Logical block address (LBA) to physical address mapping is manually rebuilt where automated firmware correction is not possible.
4. Raw NAND Imaging and ECC Correction
- NAND chips are imaged at the binary level using specialised readers.
- Data is reconstructed from raw dumps and ECC (Error Correction Code) blocks are corrected to repair fragmented or partially corrupted files.
5. File System Reconstruction
- Once a usable image is achieved, we rebuild the original NTFS, exFAT, or FAT32 file system.
- Lost directories, filenames, and metadata are reconstructed using volume shadow copies, journaling data, and MFT parsing techniques.
6. Data Extraction and Verification
- Recovered data is verified for consistency and integrity.
- Results are copied to a new encrypted storage medium and verified in-lab to ensure successful retrieval of user data such as documents, images, and videos.
