i have WD Blue SN570 NVMe SSD WDS100T3B0C - SSD - 1 TB looks dead and i tested under thermal cam and found there are 2 spot which got hot. are those spot normal to get hot

i attached the spots' photo

any one can help ?

thanks in advance

as i read from the previous thread this controller not supported yet and chip off won't work cause it's encrypted if chipped off. So, is there any solution for this kind of issue ?

Hello.

Usually this model of WD Blue has a problem with capacitors and resistors near the M.2 interface. I recommend you to resloder them.

thanks for your fast reply

by the way this one has continuity with the multi-meter,

Source of the post SSD chip unsoldering is very bad idea. Most of modern SSD models have full hardware encryption, and the data on chips is totaly encrypted by AES-256 KEY or by Dynamic XOR.

PC-3000 Flash support data recovery from very old and simple SSD, like Samsung MLC, STEC, and some others. But now - this method is not working with modern drives.

If your SSD has a problem with PCB, you can try to find donor and swap NAND from patient to donor. Encryption Keys are storing inside FW, so no need to swap CPU also.

does finding a donor and swap NAND work with this model ?

If the problem related to the power scheme - yes, NAND swap will help.

Dear Roman, i found this the same NVMe but not the same Controller no. is it possible to be a perfect for NAND Swap ?

i attached the 2 controllers' photos

I'm afraid that it could be incompatible modification of CPU. I recommend you to find exactly the same model with the same CPU name.
