This is a new more active post referenced to my 1 th wd blue sa510 ssd that now shows up as uninitialized in windows. 

From the previous post, i was told that i should make a copy off the ssd to work on as working on the original can damage it. Do i need to do this?

Also, how likely is it that diskdrill, or some other software(pls recommend) can pull data off it?

If it can, can I somehow manage to save and continue using the same drive or should i get a warranty replacement from WD?

Imagine everything i have written in a Linus Voice/ linus tone (Spock live long and prosper gif here ,idk why tho, i guess i just want to say that i like star trek and am waiting for new seasons of the ongoing shows), But seriously, a lot of what i type only makes sense when said in a Linus tone from an older ltt video (circa 2017-2019 & now 2024-onwards) basically before he got a beard and a lot of it should make sense even in a Linus with a beard face.

also note as per the latest typing test on my laptop, my accuracy is 69%

 

I'm not weird/creepy, I'm just observant I have ADHD and am not on any meds for it because I don't want to and don't need to be on meds. i also may just be depressed. If you find other things around you depressing, are you depressed or are you surrounded by depressing things?

If the drive died once there is no way I'd ever trust it again even in the unlikely event I could get it working again. 
As for salvaging the data, that's kind of up in the air. Depends on the specific mode of death. What specific way did it die?
How important is the data? If it's mission critical I'd say pony up for Drive Savers

Mode of death is that it stopped working 



 

I have a new thread with more details
