Data recovery engineers and digital forensics experts consider the PC-3000 Flash as the tool №1 when it comes to extracting data/evidence from damaged NAND Flash devices. It is the only solution that completely supports many drive brands, e.g. SanDisk, new Phison, or SiliconMotion, so you can get file systems, and separate files both. Now we have expanded the list of supported storage media by adding 9 types of translators for SanDisk 8sec, 2 subtypes of translators for SM2704, and have improved algorithms for PS8210.

Also, you can now edit the solution before implementing it and reproduce the result in the transformation graph form that increases the efficiency of the solutions.

All these features and many others are now available with the following English, Japanese, Korean and Chinese software update:

• PC-3000 Flash software Ver. 7.4.11

All authorized technical support users will get the latest software versions. Please contact us to learn more on how to become an authorized technical support user and receive all of the recent PC-3000 Software Updates:

For the first time, the ACE Lab Technology Conference on Data Recovery & Digital Forensics was held online. Although we really missed our usual in-person component of the Prague event, we were very glad that so many of you could join the live streams on April 23-24, 2020. And this proves just how much the data recovery engineers and digital forensics experts are keen on being up-to-date with the latest advances in the field provided by ACE Lab.

The ACE Lab TechCon 2020 in numbers:

This year we conducted 2 identical events for different time zones so that you could choose the most convenient time to attend the conference. Over 1000 people from 92 countries signed up for the meeting and joined in at the various stages of the live streams to ask their questions.

As always, the participants were able to learn new data recovery techniques, to find out smart and easy solutions to the most burning challenges, and to discover different tips & tricks to simplify their work even further. All these and many other features are now available with the latest software update.

During the sessions, we showed 18 live case demonstrations on how to most efficiently recover data and evidence from all types of storage media devices with the PC-3000 Products.

Today you can watch the video of the whole event. If you are interested in a particular topic, please choose the exact timestamp on our website.

See you next year in Prague!

ACE Lab Online Conference Agenda

The event will take place twice, so you can choose the best time for attendance depending on your time zone. The schedule is the same for both days of the conference.

Please be sure to check the exact time when the conference begins:

Today, the market of mid-budget SSD controllers is primarily shared amongst 3 companies: Silicon Motion (SMI), Phison, and Marvell. When we launched the PC-3000 Portable III, it became the first and the only solution for recovering data from PCIe NVMe SSDs using the Techno Mode. At the initial release, only Silicon Motion SSDs based on SM2260 and SM2263 controllers were supported. But it was just the beginning!

Now we have significantly expanded the list of supported drives by adding the NVMe SSDs based on the Phison PS5007 controller:

Patriot Hellfire	Kingston KC1000

And since all the PS5007-based SSDs are technically the same, you can recover data from any model based on this controller, even if it’s not listed in the Utility.

The new version of the software is available for download in your Personal Update Boxes.
If you have any questions, feel free to address them to our Technical Support.

2 YEARS OF FREE TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Buy the PC-3000 Portable III until May 1, 2020, and get 2 years of free Technical Support for your PC-3000 Portable III System.
