Someone know correct point where i can connect RxD and TxD signal for terminal on Samsung MZMTE512HMHP PM851 Family ? Tnks

Hello! Can I ask you to upload high resolution pictures of your drive PCB? I will check your pinout.

[Powermax]

Sure. Here is. Tnks for Help

Well, looks like this mSATA drive does not have special pins for terminal connection. In new version of SSD we support PM851 drives, but in common SATA form-factor.

As I remember, current mSATA drive have terminal output somewhere under controller - at least for 840 EVO (which is twin-brother to PM851) have terminal outputs somewhere in the roads under controller.
Our developer unsolder the CPU, and look for the target pins.

Anyway, the only thing that you can do right now:

Find the same healthy PM851 drive;
Send your drive PM851 and donor PM851 to us.
Our developers will try to find pins, solder terminal, and get access to user data.
Unfortunately this is the only way. I know that it is not easy, but unfortunately it's not a common SATA SSD, it's a damn mSATA tiny drive

Thank you for detail, but i cannot send SSD to you. Tnks the same. Bye

You are welcome. If your customer will change his opinion - we still can try!

Is there any progress is finding short point to enter in Safe Mode?

For mSATA drives - still not solution. But we completly support full SATA models.

A solution for these mSATA PM851 is high on my wish list

[digitalsupport]

mSATA PM851 is added in the latest version, great news

[Roman_TS]

Yes, it is supported. Here are the target pins for them. Will post a new article in our blog soon.

P.S. in attachment you can find two pins for soldering a wires. They will be required for terminal connection.

Already solved my "waiting" case
Take a cup of coffee before soldering wire to connect terminal
