SATA SSD Data Recovery Services

Professional Data Recovery for SATA-Based Solid State Drives

DataRecoveryLab.nz provides specialised SATA SSD data recovery services for individuals and businesses across New Zealand. If your solid state drive has failed, become inaccessible, or lost critical data, our experienced technicians can help.

SATA-based SSDs store data using NAND flash memory and complex controllers. When they fail, recovery is significantly more complex than traditional hard drives and often impossible without specialised equipment and expertise. Our lab is equipped to handle these challenges safely and professionally.

Supported SSD Form Factors

We recover data from all common SATA-based SSD form factors, including:

  • 2.5” SATA SSDs
    Widely used in laptops, desktops, and servers across consumer and business environments.
  • M.2 SATA SSDs
    Compact M.2 drives operating over the SATA interface (not NVMe), commonly found in ultrabooks and small-form-factor systems.
  • mSATA SSDs
    Often used in older laptops, embedded systems, and industrial equipment. These drives require specialised recovery techniques due to their design and controller layouts.
SSD Data Recovery form factors: 2.5”, M.2, mSATA

Each form factor presents unique technical challenges, all of which are supported in our recovery lab.

Common SATA SSD Data Loss Scenarios

We recover data from SATA SSDs affected by:

  • SSD not detected by BIOS or operating system
  • Drive showing incorrect or zero capacity
  • Accidental deletion or formatting
  • Corrupted file system or partition table
  • Firmware or controller failure
  • SSD freezing systems or becoming read-only
  • Power surge or electrical damage
  • Liquid or physical damage

Even if your SSD appears completely dead, recovery may still be possible.

Why SATA SSD Data Recovery Requires Specialists

Unlike hard drives, SATA SSDs rely heavily on firmware, wear-levelling, and controller-managed data distribution. In many failure cases, standard software tools are ineffective or can cause further damage.

Our recovery capabilities include:

  • Firmware-level repair and access
  • NAND flash memory extraction (chip-off recovery)
  • Controller failure recovery
  • Encrypted SATA SSD recovery (BitLocker, FileVault, etc.)
