The PC-3000 SSD Delivery Packages

PC-3000 SSD PC-3000 SSD Extended

Delivery kit:

  • the System's software, the resource database – Available in the Technical Support Portal
  • User manual – 1 book

The functions of the PC-3000 SSD software:

for data recovery:

  • verify and restore the SSD's service information
  • read and write the content of the SSD's ROM
  • load the microcode into the drive's RAM
  • emulate the translator operation in order to get access to user data
  • view the password and reset the password that was earlier set on an SSD (bypass the ATA security)
  • turn off background processes in an SSD to prevent data damage
  • provide direct access to the content of memory chips (it makes unsoldering unnecessary)
  • work with the Data Extractor

for SSD repair (to recover normal operation):

  • diagnose an SSD in factory (technological) mode
  • verify and restore the SSD's service information
  • read and write the content of the SSD's ROM
  • load the microcode into the drive's RAM
  • view the logs of hidden defects (P-page, G-page) 0
  • perform low-level formatting to hide the discovered defects
  • change the configuration and identification parameters
  • reset the logs and S.M.A.R.T. parameters
  • search for the damaged memory chips

The PC-3000 SSD contains a set of specialized utilities for working with solid-state drives. This set includes the Universal Utility for diagnosing any SSD based on the ATA-8 specification (both currently existing models and those that will be manufactured in future) and the Active Utilities (Special Utilities) intended for working with a particular drive model in factory mode. It enables to deeply diagnose SSDs, to perform service operations, to re-write the drive's microcode, to get direct access to memory chips, to carry out low-level formatting blocking the damaged cells and placing their addresses into the defect table, and to perform many other useful operations.

The list of Active Utilities of the PC-3000 SSD System is expanded as soon as new SSD models are studied, and it is a continuous process. Those utilities that are currently available allow you to successfully recover data from all contemporary solid-state drives and to resolve the majority of wide-spread SSD problems. Special adapters and connectors for the PC-3000 Portable / Express / UDMA have been added in order to use technological interfaces to diagnose and repair drives.

Breakthrough: the PCIe SSD Support

The PC-3000 SSD Extended software add-on is the world’s first and only solution to deal with damaged SSDs based on the PCIe interfaces along with the SATA ones! Together with the special adapters and the PC-3000 Portable PRO Systems, it helps you to diagnose the condition of the drives and extract evidence from healthy and damaged PCIe SSDs:
