If the drive is failing, switch it off now. Every restart of a damaged drive can destroy more data. Don't run recovery software on it or keep trying it.

How we recover your data
SSDs like the Samsung 870 EVO have no moving parts, so they don't click when they fail. A firmware fault or failed component can make the whole drive disappear, even though your data is still on its memory chips.
We repair the firmware or failed electronics so the drive can read its memory again, then copy your data to a healthy drive. We confirm the price after a free consultation.

Questions
Can you recover deleted files from a Samsung 870 EVO?
Often not. Most SSDs permanently clear deleted files within minutes using a feature called TRIM. Stop using the computer and talk to us, and we'll tell you honestly.
Is my data still there if the Samsung 870 EVO isn't detected?
Often, yes. A controller or firmware fault can hide the data without erasing it.
