Flash Data Recovery Expert Training Overview
Day 1 Highlights
During the first day of training you are given a detailed review of NAND memory theory and its principles. PC-3000 Flash functionality is introduced and reviewed.
Day 2 Highlights
The second day is dedicated to help you understand each theoretical point as theory turns into examples of application. You are provided practice exercises with real cases. Every attendee has to solve numerous cases under the supervision of our instructors.
Day 3 Highlights
On the third day we extend your knowledge even further, strengthen it in practice and give you the complete picture of how to perform NAND data recovery and how to use the PC-3000 Flash in the most efficient way.
Day 4 Highlights
Even more practical tasks, a real case of chip-off recovery and learning modes for improving the NAND Memory chip reading and quality of the dump.
