ADATA SSD Recovery
Your ADATA SSD has failed. Ours is the lab that fixes it.
Not detected, stuck at 0GB, or gone silent after a power cut — ADATA SSDs across the XPG, SU and OEM ranges fail in ways generic software cannot touch. We recover them at controller, firmware and chip level, in-house.
The problem
How ADATA SSDs actually fail.
From budget SU-series SATA drives to high-performance XPG GAMMIX NVMe SSDs, we see the same patterns again and again.
- Not detected or reports as uninitialized — the system no longer sees the drive at all
- 0MB capacity or "no media" — a classic sign of controller or firmware failure
- Firmware failure or power-loss corruption — the drive was mid-write when power was lost
- Accidental format or repartition — the volume is gone but the data may not be
- Overheating, random disconnects or read-only mode — often a precursor to full failure
- OEM ADATA SSD in a laptop fails with no error message — soldered or hard-to-access modules included
Important: stop using the drive as soon as you notice a fault. Do not attempt a firmware update or "flash" — on a drive that is already failing, this is one of the fastest ways to make data unrecoverable. This service is part of our wider SSD recovery service, applied specifically to ADATA hardware.
Coverage
Consumer, OEM and encrypted ADATA drives.

OEM & embedded modules
IM2S31/IM2S33, ISSS314/ISSS31, SX9000 OEM variants and other laptop-embedded ADATA drives.
Why it needs a lab
These controllers do not forgive guesswork.
Most ADATA SSDs run Silicon Motion (SMI) or Realtek controllers with proprietary firmware, and some models add hardware encryption on top. Consumer recovery software either fails outright or makes the drive worse.
- Firmware bypass and controller repair — working with the drive's own controller rather than fighting it
- NAND-level data extraction — for drives that are dead or too corrupted to negotiate normally
- Chip-off BGA rework — for completely unresponsive or physically damaged modules
- FTL reconstruction — rebuilding a corrupted flash translation layer to make sense of raw NAND data
Every case runs through one in-house chain of custody — nothing is outsourced or shipped abroad, which matters as much for business and legal clients as for personal data.
Process
Straightforward, honest, fixed-price.
- 01
Diagnosis
Send the drive, or the whole laptop for an embedded OEM module. We identify the real fault — controller, firmware, NAND or logical — and report back with a clear verdict.
- 02
Fixed quote
You approve a fixed price based on the actual failure before any recovery work begins. No surprise invoices.
- 03
Laboratory recovery
Firmware repair, chip-off reads or logical reconstruction as the case requires, always performed onto verified images of the original media.
- 04
Verified return
Files verified openable and returned to you on encrypted media, typically within days of approval.
Transparent pricing
ADATA SSD recovery pricing.
Published starting prices by capacity — your fixed quote is confirmed after diagnosis. Prices exclude VAT.
All prices below are net (before VAT). We add VAT at 20% on top — shown beneath each price as “inc VAT”, which is the total you actually pay. For example, a £425 net recovery is £510 including VAT. VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim it.
SSD Recovery
| Capacity | Recovery from |
|---|---|
| 0 – 128 GB | £399£479 inc VAT |
| 250 GB | £499£599 inc VAT |
| 500 GB | £599£719 inc VAT |
| 1 TB | £699+£839+ inc VAT |
Add £125 for encrypted drives.

Questions
The honest answers.
My ADATA SSD shows 0MB or "no media". Can it be fixed?
Usually this points to controller or firmware failure rather than dead NAND, and both are recoverable failure classes in our lab. Diagnosis will tell you exactly where you stand before you commit to anything.
Is an OEM ADATA SSD inside my laptop still recoverable?
Yes, in most cases. Send the whole laptop rather than trying to remove the module yourself — some OEM drives are soldered or awkward to access safely, and we have the tooling to work with them in place.
I accidentally formatted my ADATA drive. Is data still there?
Often, yes — a format does not usually overwrite the underlying data immediately. Stop using the drive now and get it to us before anything is written to it again.
Does encryption on newer ADATA drives stop recovery?
Not necessarily, but it does change the approach. We need to know if hardware encryption is enabled, and in some cases the original password or recovery key, so let us know at diagnosis stage.
How much does ADATA SSD recovery cost?
It depends on the failure class, which is why diagnosis always comes first and the quote is fixed before we start. Logical cases cost less than firmware or chip-level work.
