The limitation of this method for flash data recovery:
1. It is impossible for the manufacturers to add all the controllers you need to the database since there are too many of them, not to mention the new controllers keep coming out; users will find there are just limited controllers supported; and once the target controller is not included in the database, users can’t do nothing but give it up.
2. The controller emulator matches the controller by mainly the controller model, which may lead to a false match because even controller chips with the same model number may contain different contents, especially when they are not manufactured by the same factory at the same time.
So even when your current case has a controller which makes a perfect match with a previous proven one, there is a great chance that users recover nothing by using the saved controller settings.
And as a temporary solution, we will provide what we have as importable configurations on the user forum for you to download, which can be adopted directly by using the import algorithm function of the flash recovery program.
- The problem of Flash Doctor opens the dump in exclusive mode.
We truly understand that the users may need to work out a flash recovery case by working together with other tools, such as WinHex, for data structure analysis. So please rest assured that this problem will be solved in the very next upgrade of Flash Doctor. Make sure you download the update when it becomes available.
- More types of flash chips with different packages besides TSOP48 should be supported.
It is for sure that we have considered about providing extra adaptors that allows customers to read flash chip in other package modes such as TLGA, TSOP-48-Short and BGA. But as we all know that it is hard to include all types of packages, especially for BGA; we will love to hear from all customers about what types of package modes they need urgently so that we can start working on that and provide them as extra adaptors.
For the development of flash doctor to support more flash chip formats and run with more advanced flash recovery solutions, SalvationDATA are preparing an activity with all our customers, both potential and returning customers to gather your flash chip details including the technique details, user manual, chip failure details, etc. Whoever joins this program will get the coupon (purchase discount) for any of our data recovery tools, including HD HPE PRO, HD Doctor Suite, Flash Doctor and Data Compass. Please take care of our official news for details considering this activity.
- The lack of case study and tutorial.
Since our technology and procedure adopted in Flash Doctor are unique and breakthroughs in flash data recovery field, there are many new concepts being introduced, and this is why the new users, especially for those who are new to flash data recovery without a firm knowledge in logical data structure and flash storage structure. We will provide more thorough and in-depth tutorials from the beginning of flash data recovery in a specially designed section on the new website flashdoctor.salvationdata.com.
With solid state storage knocking on the door, magnetic media companies, and businesses that rely upon magnetic media, would better take the long view and figure out their place in the solid state world. If you are wondering what SalvationDATA is doing, we are always working on cutting-edge data recovery technologies and solutions for your long-term business. Selecting SalvationDATA will not only mean that you have a nice toolkit but a technology partner who always keeps you staying successful and competitive. Grow with SalvationDATA in 2010 and prove data recovery will never die. |
