This comes from Acer Aspire S5, S6 or S7 mSata SSD drives in for data recovery. This SSD has a proprietary pinout and doesn't work with conventional adapters. It's basically two SSDs mounted on one PCB and requires a special interface to read both sides. We can recover data from this type of laptop SSD. It usually has a RAID 0 stripe, which can double the user’s speed — but if the laptop fails, it’s not possible to read the data with a standard adapter.

Acer Aspire S7 Laptop Data Recovery Caselog

I have an Acer Aspire S7 (391 variant) which recently ran into some problems. To cut a long story short, the Windows 10 updates failed a number of times, which then led me (the long way round) to booting from USB and trying to re-install Windows. Again, this failed, hanging at various points of installation.

I have two questions:

  1. Can the MSATA SSD be replaced with a generic MSATA SSD, or does it have to be the unique Acer type?

  2. Any ideas how to recover the data from the corrupt SSD? I've put it into a USB reader, but Windows can't read it. An expert over on Tom's Hardware Forums showed me an article explaining that the Acer S7 MSATA SSDs are unique in that they are actually 2 x 64GB units bridged together.

Zero Alpha was able to recover the data.
