WDS100T2B0A, gen 2020

[datahelp]

Hi, I have this model of SSD, the capacity is 1TB, but the PCB design is the same with older 500GB model. So, it has 4 NAND chips of type - SanDisk 60080 256G and 88SS1074 controller. PC3K Utility does not recognize this config, - 0xB8. The SSD behavior is classical - RDY after PowerON, BSY when trying to read ID. Extended mode does not help to get access to anything - unrecognized NAND chip model. Any suggestions please ?
Thanks

Hello,

Every single manufacturer who is dealing with Marvell controller is writing its own firmware for each new model of SSD. As the
result, we should develop a new utility for every single Marvell-based case. Right now, we can work with the following models:

Sandisk SSD Plus
Sandisk Ultra II
WD Blue (TLC, not 3D NAND)

All of them are based on Marvell 88SS1074. Other models, including the WD Blue 3D NAND, I'm afraid, are not listed. Probably we will add them in the future, but I don't have any estimated time for now. Marvell's technology is extremely complex. We hope to see more Marvell-based SSDs in the nearest future, but now we can't work with WD BLue 3D NAND - they have another FW location and modules structure.
