In this episode, we tackled the challenge of recovering data from an Angelbird Cfast 2.0 memory card that had been previously worked on by another data recovery shop without success. Upon receiving the device, we conducted a thorough inspection, paying close attention to the connections between components.
Visually, we noticed that the chips were not sitting evenly, which could affect their connection to the board and controller. Further tests using pc3000 revealed that only 12 out of the expected 16 banks were present, which would hinder the reconstruction of a translator necessary for recovery.
To address this, we removed all vital components from the memory card, cleaned the pads on the PCB, and reattached the components. We started by mounting the controller to ensure it could communicate through the interface without the memory chips. This initiated a ROM mode, and the utility confirmed a successful connection with the controller.
Next, we reattached both memory chips and ran the utility again. This time, all 16 banks were detected, indicating that the connection between the board and the chips was established correctly. With all 16 banks present, we began reconstructing the translator to prepare for the disk imaging task.
While we cannot pinpoint the initial problem with the card, our efforts have put the data recovery process back on track. However, due to the degradation of the memory chips, the imaging process may take a considerable amount of time.
Overall, we have brought this case to a point where there is hope for data recovery, and now it is just a matter of time.

Excellent work, as always! I don’t yet fully understand this fascinating world of data recovery, but I always glean something from all of your content. Your editing style, your clear, lucid and succinct explanations of the issues, the diagnostic process and solution are incredibly impressive. And to top it off, the music is always dope lol (think I head some J Dilla type samples on an earlier video of yours). Thank you for sharing your experience with, Erkin!
Thanks for the support man!
Всегда с удовольствием смотрю тебя, очень круто делаешь. Почему-то я уверен, что ты знаешь русский язык😁👍💪🏼
Знаю :) привет
THE CARD DATA CAN ONLY BE RECOVERED BY YOU YOUR BEST 😊😊
Erkin my friend this was an interesting case.
Indeed, still has a mystery left in it. Not sure why it keeps dropping into safe mode on its own, yet all 16 banks are detected in utility. I may rip NANDs out once more to 100% confirm my doubts
I'm not an expert but I've got a feeling that you may have a better chance if you heat up the board anywhere between 80-100°C and sheep it there until finishing the read. Worth a try just in case the traces are broken inside everything will expand and hope will make a better connection
I tried it, but no improvement
Heating up the flash chips to 100*C can erase the whole content in several hours.
Ok, will it work in the freezer? Or there are challenges too?
ANGEL BIRD ILL STAY CLEAR
Hello. I have a serious question for you.
I have experienced a STRANGE HDD disk problem.
I turned on my two external 2TB WDs. Hard drives to install
(toshiba bluetooth stack) drives something that worked well. The machine was restarted and usb bluetooth worked fine. Then I had to access the external hdd to archive something. I couldn't get in for some strange reason and it said RAW on the disk in file explorer.
I restarted the machine and win11 did a short disk repair. Then the disk was back, except that I no longer had user access to the disk. i tried to give it this but in the middle of this process win11 reported that there was an error with the disk and could not continue.
I tried linux boot usb to try to access and read and copy from hdd but didn't get full permission to copy.
Then I tried the Android TV box I had (x96 air) which gave me 100% access to do what I wanted. But the problem was USB2 which is extremely slow and I never got over 10mb/s read speed.
Anyone know why this happened to me? why do I suddenly have to have user access. Shouldn't an external hdd work without user access?
bite caps are unscrewed.
I am using win11 23h2
I don't know how these devices establish connection. I would not be concerned about getting access to the data, but making the unit work for permanent use is not something we practice here. Sorry
Nice work is the oscillator stable? Just a thought not sure if its a xtal type device i didnt notice.
I must be otherwise it would not start
How does one get into data recovery? What does one have to do?

A los 4 meses de comprar una cfexpress Se 512gb se me rompió dentro de mi nikon z8 causando graves daños. Cuidado con ellas. Y la gran empresa @Angelbird lo que hace es bloquearme para que no hable.
strange for me that memory chips have no underfill under them, and only controller have
They were removed before I got the device than put back on
