You probably have no hope of recovery. Take the drive to a local recovery agency to see if there is remote possibility.– anonCommented Dec 20, 2022 at 21:44

That doesn't explain anything. What could put an SSD in that state? What could a recovery center do that I haven't tried myself? Why the strange behavior when booting into it?– NathanCommented Dec 20, 2022 at 21:52

1SSDs can fail like any drive and there is not much hope of recovery from the cells– anonCommented Dec 20, 2022 at 22:08

1“What could put an SSD in that state?” - Age; Maximum number of writes, hardware failure. Data recovery companies have more tools than the ones that are accessible to the common individual. Has others have pointed out, data recovery on a SSD, is extremely difficult even if the device is discoverable by common data recovery tools.– RamhoundCommented Dec 20, 2022 at 22:21

1I cannot say about any individual drive. Mean time to failure also plays a part. You would need to contact Dell Support and ask them.– anonCommented Dec 20, 2022 at 23:39

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
