DFL eMMC chip reader hardware has been upgraded and many users have received the new hardware from the new purchases.

Before the hardware upgrade, the eMMC chip reader supports 4 types of eMMC chips:

BGA 153/169
BGA 162/186
BGA 221
BGA 529

For these four chips, users don’t need to solder any wire, just simply put the chips correctly into the chip holder and users can read the chip data from PC.

After the upgrade, the signal interfaces are added onto the hardware and users can solder wires/signal lines to connect the other chips besides above 4 mentioned chip types. This requires good soldering skills.

DFL eMMC Chip Reader Signal Interfaces

After soldering the signal lines, users can connect the 162/186 SD connector to the SD card reader and then users can read the other chips too from PC.

Dolphin team keep working hard to improve all our hardware and software tools, please note: DFL eMMC chip reader all in one doesn’t contain any software, it works like one converter to connect the chips to PC and the pc will help to recognize the chips and display the data.

Hello Dolphin Data Lab,

How are you? I have a 2tb seagate barracuda that is not accessible, it’s spinning up and then does 2 consecutive scratch like noise .

After that the disk is busy. I’ve tried to change the PCB with the exact same working PCB, I got the same noise and no data.I tried to put the original ROM on the donor PCB, now it’s not even accessible.

This is one new IT engineer client from Brazil who wishes to enter data recovery field.

‘Hi,

This is Carlos Roberto and I have an IT security and virtualization company and I’m looking at the data recovery and disk market.

I’m thinking of starting a new data and disk recovery company, but I really do not know exactly what I need with regards to equipment and software so I can recover SATA and SAS disk data with or without RAID configuration.
