ADATA SU800 256GB drive with Deleted partitions

ADATA SU800 256GB drive with Deleted partitions

Good morning.

I have been trying to research through all previous posts as well as almost 20 hrs of other programs/YT videos and online to repair this drive and I am now at the point where I absolutely need the help.

I will post the log, screen shots and be as patient as possible for a response from the GURU and others. I am confident it is a simple "click this, change this and hit apply" type fix however i am out of my league/scope.

I am trying to repair an ADATA SU800 256GB SSD Drive that is only showing 119GB available. It belongs to a friend and someone cloned an old HD to it which i believe is where the problem started. There are 3 deleted partitions. I will post an image of the TestDisk Deeper search results below.


Thank you in advance for your time. I hope this will help others in the future.

Jason

TestDisk exited normally.
Given what the log file states your statement in your initial posting wasn't quite right:
I am trying to repair an ADATA SU800 256GB SSD Drive that is only showing 119GB available.
According to the log file your ADATA SU800 256 GB SSD states that its size is only 119GB instead of its promissed capacity of 256 GB.

This is where the TestDisk package cannot support you and you will have to consult a data recovery lab for recovery.
I guess nobody wants to "repair" your asummably broken SSD because that will be more expensive than its purchasing price.
