Awesome work man, my hat's off to you. I used to do a lot of PCB work in late 90s, nothing this small though, and I have too much shake now. Thanks for the video
Hi! I sent a message on your website "contact us" page about my failed hard drive earlier today. Your UA-cam channel is the reason I decided to go with your company, hopefully you (the guy in the videos) is the person who will be servicing the drive. You seem to have some serious skills. Hope to hear back soon!
A few months ago I needed to repair my Commodore 64 (computer designed in 1982, but this unit is from 1985). The computer works fine, but the cartridge port was dead. With my crappy equipment (and using garbage flux) desoldering it sucked and I damaged a trace. It was lifted, but still attached to the via. So when I put the new connector in, I'm like......I know where it goes and I could bodge it......or I could just solder the trace to that particular pin. I was shocked when it actually worked. lol I hate the desoldering part (especially with my crappy equipment), but I get what you mean when you say soldering is therapeutic. Putting the new connector in was a huge stress relief. And the computer is working great again. It would be interesting to take it back in time and say hey look at this C64 with 16GB storage (I have a cartridge that give it USB support). The flash drive I use has hundreds of old disk images on it.
Hi Erkin, every times your videos teach lesson for your students. So this is not just a channel, its also a class for peoples who are like to learn data recovery. Thank you :) And how you find fash drive donors for your collection?
Hello sir , love your work I’m in somewhat in the same business! I had my own clean room built about a year ago the air in their is like being high up in the mountains ? I’m from Miami Florida so I can tell the difference! But always are looking out fir new content ? Thank you 🙏
I love micro soldering, I'm not quite yet making stuff at the scale you are. What stops shorting between the copper jumper wires that you connected the controller ic with?
@@continuouswaveform I have never had the soldering iron successfully burn off the enamel, is it a specific type of enamel or a special thin enamel? What temperature does it burn off?
@@continuouswaveform I guess I've never used small enough enamel wire. If I need small stuff I usually go with plain copper to avoid sanding. But if I don't need to sand it then I'll try that in the future. thanks.
thanks. Data recovery is not something you can really study for, but you pick up as you go. Individual tools may have training from developers, but soldering is really best learned by practice. I have been doing this for many years now.
@@hddrecoveryservices thx for the answer. Yes soldering is just learning by doing and many years of training. I do soldering many years too. But this knowledge about this software...puhhh...that must be a long way to be there where you are. Chapeau! It seems that pc3000 is very extensive, you have to know what you do when you use it.
Hello Erkin, can a emmc/mtd flash (or anything that detected as /dev/mmcblk0 and /dev/mtdblk0) be mounted to a host computer so the user can read/write to it directly as if it's a sdcard? I'm experimenting with old android phones and android based set top boxes, I want to change the OS inside the chip but also be able to directly read/write to the internal storage like when we swap ssd/hdd from a laptop to another laptop.. and when i messed up the bootloader i can just "sudo dd if=uboot.img of=/dev/sdX" Is this possible?
With an adapter to SD - sure. But android OS is not gonna be recognized by windows, so it would need to be formatted. Some laptops come with eMMC onboard as storage
@@hddrecoveryservices I'm not using Windows in my host computer. I run Ubuntu 20.04 and i don't have windows computer at all. so filesystem is not really a problem.. The problem is, how can I access the storage directly as block device (the device's kernel does treat it as block device)
Ааа, вроде Китай начал продавать пятаки прям целые которые можно на клею обратно смонтировать и проволокой дотянуть, но я такими ништяками не пользуюсь. Просто скручиваю спираль из 42AWG проволоки и сверху зелёный клей типа эпоксидки. Потом скальпелем зачистить надо

About donors :) I will explain in future episodes. Something is actually in works for it right now
I also worked for the Miami FC and Stickers ! NASL
Very nicely done, you really make that look easy, and I know it most certainly is not in any way easy.
Thank you!
Nice and therapeutic fix for sure!
Thanks
Great video. Keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
Awesome job as usual
Thanks again!

the wire has an enamel coating

thanks dude!

Thanks dude!
Next level skill
this guy is top class
thanks dude
That was awesome, great idea!
Thank you! Cheers!
And great job again :)
Thanks
Very good work....amazing.
Where did you learn all that stuff?

One step at a time 🙂
What tweezers / scalpels / tools for working with small components and wires do you recommend?
a lot of this stuff is listed in the description box
@@hddrecoveryservices I can't see any hand tools or tweezers only stuff like soldering iron.
Sir have 2 mini OTG USB
But after heat not work any salution how to recover data ?
how long did it take you to solder all those wires to the Board?
10-15 min
@@hddrecoveryservices the patiance you must have to do this. bravo.
03:20 some BTC price action :)
this was shot when SOL was @ $20ish
@@hddrecoveryservices It was a crasy ride, up to 200$ .. I missed the train
O...M...G.... !! I can't believe that worked !! ;) Outstanding !!
Thank you Donald
Was that hard to find a donor card, and swap the NAND?
I didn't have one and o have thousands of cards that have been repaired previously
my pen drive prompts write protected.i tried a lot of ways but no success
needs to be tested, but maybe its a faulty NAND
I am done with this. If it doesnt work it doesnt work. 5 minutes later soldering on wires to the contacts of the controller lol.
you can tell I am a bad gambler haha, if if the pot is too deep I just can't stop :)
@@hddrecoveryservices just put your hand on the edge of the table and puuuuusssssshhhhh lol.
Love you sir ❤❤❤❤❤
Bro I want start data recovery lab. Can you please guide me with different hardware and software to be used. Regards
Basically, just get everything you see on this channel :)
my memory stick says write ptotected i tried everything but it dont want to format what can i do
I think the issue is on the NAND, not much to do there without programmer and NAND software
Cool, but for only 8Gigs?
Hi Sir, can you provide services to customer outside Canada or US? Like i'm in Indonesia?
We do international work

hello sir.. can you recover files?? my memory was formatted on camera (sony A7Rii)
yes
Great work.. 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Hello sir use UV Light + heat gun to cure it in 20 sec
thanks for the tip!
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Looks easy but it's not👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Keep it up 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
this was kinda easy, but we got lucky that nothing internally was damaged on the circuit and stitching was not complex
Frankenstein masterpiece! 😁
haha :)
Nice !
Thanks!
cool man
Thanks!
