Data Recovery from bad SSD
patrikg:
I think you can also use some tools for your image, for carving out the files.
I think of one program called scalpel, that uses the magic descriptor of files.
But if the blockchain is lost there no easy solution, i think.
You can visit the arch wiki if you like to spend little more time about Data/File recovery.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the help, I sent the SSD off to a recovery firm, they've examined it and said there was "firmware corruption" and that data would need to be restored "off-chip", apparently there are many individual flash drives within the SSD that act as a RAID array?, so it sounds like the individual flash drives (if that's the right word) need to be pulled out and data pulled off each sub-drive individually, will be no charge if they can't recover any data and I won't tell how much it will cost if they are successful!
Suffice to say it's almost as much as a whole new SSD!
At least it forces me to get to get the VortexDX3 setup going 100 percent asap!
Thanks,
David

Could you guys create a SystemRescueCd type flavor of TinyCore (gui) and Microcore (cli) that will be designed to recover or fix HDDs.
The best version will be 2 file version, kernel + core.gz, easy to install and easy to remaster.
