About the PC-3000 SSD
Product Code: AP-ACE-PC3000 SSD
The PC-3000 SSD Software System operates in tandem with one of the three up-to-date hardware platforms – PC-3000 Express, PC-3000 UDMA, or PC-3000 Portable –and it is intended for SSD repair and diagnosis and for data recovery from SSDs with SATA, PATA, mSATA, and M.2 (NGFF) interfaces and the capacity from 64 GB to 1 Tb produced by different manufacturers, such as OCZ, Corsair, Crucial, RunCore, A-DATA, G.Skill, Micron, Plextor, Intel, Samsung, SanDisk, Seagate, Kingston and others.
The PC-3000 SSD contains a set of specialized utilities for working with solid-state drives. This set includes the Universal Utility for diagnosing any SSD based on the ATA-8 specification (both currently existing models and those that will be manufactured in future) and the Active Utilities (Special Utilities) intended for working with a particular drive model in factory mode. It enables to deeply diagnose SSDs, to perform service operations, to re-write the drive’s microcode, to get direct access to memory chips, to carry out low-level formatting blocking the damaged cells and placing their addresses into the defect table, and to perform many other useful operations.
The list of Active Utilities of the PC-3000 SSD System is expanded as soon as new SSD models are studied, and it is a continuous process. Those utilities that are currently available allow you to successfully recover data from all contemporary solid-state drives and to resolve the majority of wide-spread SSD problems. Special adapters and connectors for the PC-3000 Portable / Express / UDMA have been added in order to use technological interfaces to diagnose and repair drives.

The functions of the PC-3000 SSD software:
For data recovery:
- Verify and restore the SSD’s service information.
- Read and write the content of the SSD’s ROM.
- Load the microcode into the drive’s RAM.
- Emulate the translator operation in order to get access to user data.
- View the password and reset the password that was earlier set on an SSD (bypass the ATA security).
- Turn off background processes in an SSD to prevent data damage.
- Provide direct access to the content of memory chips (it makes unsoldering unnecessary).
- Work with the Data Extractor.
For SSD repair (to recover normal operation):
- Diagnose an SSD in factory (technological) mode
- Verify and restore the SSD’s service information
- Read and write the content of the SSD’s ROM
- Load the microcode into the drive’s RAM
- View the logs of hidden defects (P-page, G-page) 0
- Perform low-level formatting to hide the discovered defects
- Change the configuration and identification parameters
- Reset the logs and S.M.A.R.T. parameters
- Search for the damaged memory chips
