“Hello,
I need confirmation about compatible SATA PCB for recovery purposes.
Here are the details of my drive:
Model: Western Digital My Passport Ultra (Metal Edition)
Product Number: WDBEZW0020BBA-0A
Serial Number: WXC1AC6AS94Z
Internal HDD Model: WD20NMVW-59EDZS7
PCB Number: 2060-771961-001 REV (USB native)
The drive powers on and is detected via USB, but it is extremely slow and has bad sectors. I need to convert it to SATA for imaging and diagnostics.
Questions:
Does your Western Digital USB-to-SATA PCB Package include a compatible SATA board for 2060-771961-001?
After installing the SATA PCB, will I need to transfer the ROM chip to access the data?
Because this is a My Passport Ultra Metal Edition, does the hardware encryption remain active after PCB conversion?
If encryption prevents access, is the DFL-URE USB3.0 required to extract or decrypt the data?
Thank you.”
The compatible SATA PCB for this 2060-771961-001 REV is 2060-771960 and it is included in the Western Digital USB-to-SATA PCB Package. The patient may suffer the common slow firmware issue or weak head issue. If it is firmware related bad sector slow issue, it’s easy to fix by DFL WD firmware repair tool. If it is weak head or physical bad sector issue, users can only set up head map and image good heads and good sectors first and then weak heads and sectors.
DFL-URE is able to extract the data at non-encrypted status but not recommended for one single case.

>To refurbish hard drives, the combination of above tools is a good choice.
Is it possible to recover data from deleted or formatted SSD? This depends mostly on if the Trim command is turned on or off. In order to help to improve the performance of SSD, the TRIM command, GC(garbage collection) and wear leveling technologies are adopted. These technologies will erase all the marked unused/deleted/formatted data blocks and get these blocks to raw available space which means the previous data couldn’t be recovered any more.
Please note: Trim cmd is turned on by default and this one is not friendly for data recovery and if users need to recover the lost data, users need to turn it off.
Besides, pls. don’t write any new data to the patient SSD so the previous data won’t be overwritten.

SSD common failures and data recovery cases:
01: SSD bad sector data recovery-After a long-term use and repeated data read and write, the SSD can suffer bad sectors and become very slow or gets stuck;
02: Physical connector failure;
03: System file/file system corruption;
04: Motherboard compatibility issue;
05: Firmware corruption/translator issue;
06: Controller corruption/SSD physical failures.

It’s common SSDs have physical failures causing data loss and users need to fix the physical failures to recover the lost data.
The following are common SSD physical failures:
01: The patient SSD is totally silent/dead caused by the corrupted power connector or main controller IC;
02: The patient SSD may generate popping or buzzing sounds caused by PCB failure or controller failure;
03: The patient SSD may become very hot/overheating or suffer swelling deformation;
04: The patient SSD has physical components burning or suffered a short circuit.

As for recovering lost data from different SSDs, the controller health is one important factor to diagnose and repair. The following are the most common controllers:
SMI Controller
Example ID: SM2246XT SM2258XT SM2259XT
PHISON Controller
Example ID: PS3109 PS3110 PS3111
MARVELL Controller
Example ID: 88NV/88SS
SAMSUNG Controller
Example ID: MJX/PHONENIX
Intel Controller
Example ID: PC29AS21AA0
Controllers from China
Example ID: MAP1806 GK2302 JMICRON JMF602
Other controllers…
When users are trying to diagnose and repair the controllers, users need to check the working temperature(very hot if damaged), soldering joints(detached or not), SSD LED lights and if the SSDs are detected or not by the PC.
