Super User Asked by Gabriel Ziegler on October 14, 2020
I have a KingDian SSD that had Windows 10 installed and suddenly this disk has stopped booting. I have tried formating the partition and also changing the partition table from DOS
to GPT
, but although both fdisk
and gparted
says the operations were successfully accomplished after I close fdisk
or gparted
the disk remains the same.
Is there a way I can force format this disk? Is there any trick that could save this SSD? Now it is completely useless as it is.
note: I have tried doing the same tasks on other computers and other OS (arch, manjaro and windows)
Edit 1:
I ran the three steps for starting ATA Secure Erase and checked if my disk was like the one in the example. My output:
Security:
Master password revision code = 65534
supported
enabled
not locked
not frozen
not expired: security count
supported: enhanced erase
Security level high
2min for SECURITY ERASE UNIT. 2min for ENHANCED SECURITY ERASE UNIT.
Checksum: correct
I then ran security-erase as step 3 says:
hdparm --user-master u --security-erase PasSWorD /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Issuing SECURITY_ERASE command, password="PasSWorD", user=user
SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, sb[]: 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0a 04 51 40 00 21 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Edit 2:
Running: smartctl -H /dev/sda
Outputs:
=== START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION ===
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: FAILED!
Drive failure expected in less than 24 hours. SAVE ALL DATA.
No failed Attributes found.
