thank you for making this video it's extremely frustrating that I'm only hearing about this now after mine failed but I'm so thankful I know about this now
best of luck man
My drive did this today. Hoping that this is all it needs. Still dumping the drive just in case it is not the issue.
Also, that license is probably attached to a GUID/UUID key that is generated when a drive is formatted. The GUID/UUID can sometimes also be refreshed when a drive is cloned. However, some cloning softwares (such as GParted) allow you to manually set the GUID/UUID, so as long as you make note of your original GUID/UUID, you can then replace the newly generated GUID/UUID with the old one and most licenses tied to it will continue to function.
@@davidbrown1573 oh thats clever, thanks for that tip
Thank you, omg. This firmware issue has been such a pain just figuring out that the issue was, it was driving me crazy. Liked subscribed and im sharing wherever i see this issue mentioned.
Thank you so much for the video! Unfortunately my 980 pro gave out before I found this video. I’m glad there’s hope to recovering the data! My drive that failed was my primary boot drive, and thankfully I was able to get another 2tb drive. I haven’t able to successfully clone the old drive so that the new drive would be able to boot into windows as it did on the read only drive. I’ve tried using clonezilla but it wouldn’t let me copy most of my data or let the new drive boot. Might have to try acronis true image a shot. Other than that any other tips for a successful clone? Thanks again for the helpful video!
Does your replacement drive have slightly less storage than the original? That could be your issue even if the larger source drive has less data used than the total storage of the smaller destination drive. Some cloning software like Clonezilla can usually still do clone this by compressing and resizing partitions etc but definitely worth trying other software.
@@CemerianVids Nope, same exact storage space in the one I'm trying to clone to, in fact they're both the same drive (both 2 TB 980 Pros), but the one I'm cloning it to has the upgraded firmware. Unfortunately for me, I tried a suggestion from someone saying that I should override any errors while on clonezilla to get it to clone to the working drive. I did, and it took over 24 hours to clone everything over to the other drive due to many errors in the blocks. When I tried to boot from that drive, it encountered the same error as the broken drive, and even after fully formatting the previously working drive, I was unable to even install windows on it. Now instead of 1 totally broken drive I have 2 because I tried to override the errors. Not sure what happened, but yeah I was unable to clone the broken drive, and attempting to clone it to an identical 980 pro caused the new one to fail as well.
@@BobertRads It's extremely unlikely that the storage size of two drives will be exactly the same even if they're the same model. There is a 45gb difference between my two 2TB 980 Pros for example. You can compare LBA to get a more accurate idea of which drive is larger. If you clone a drive to a very slightly smaller drive without the software resizing partitions etc there's a big chance your cloned drive won't boot properly as you probably have missing or incomplete system files.
@@CemerianVids Not sure how to check LBA, but regardless after I tried cloning the 1st drive, the 2nd drive was unable to do anything even after formatting. i.e I was unable to install windows from a boot drive onto the 980 pro although previously I was able to prior to attempting to clone.
Great video, but were you actually able to clone the original OS read-only drive? I get errors when attempting. I can access the file structure of the read-only drive when mounted as a secondary drive, but the files I need are in the Windows/User folder which you need to alter the security permissions to access, which can't be changed now. :(
i got errors in the cloning process yeah but booted up just fine with all files intact by the looks of it
Thank you for this video so frustrated with this dead 980 pro 2tb
Did you clone yours? Mine went into read only 3 months ago... Trying to find a way to save my data.
@@ChristianNeff Didn't clone mine yet but will when i find the right software that doesn't cost so much. Good luck on cloning your drive we shouldn't have to be dealing with this.
Great video subbed
So before cloning you recommend updating the firmware of samsung 980 pro?
So I’ve had this dead 970 evo plus and been trying to figure out what was wrong with it. Now I know why. I’ve copied over most of the files that I want to keep to a different SSD. What do I do with the evo 970 plus that’s in read-only already? Is there no hope in fixing it?
RMA is the only choice really
@@TMProjectionI see, that’s unfortunate
i just had this happen to me tho i can recover my data but i going to go to samsung to get a replacemet under warnty as i only have 21TBW and it can go upto 1200TBW.
What did you use to pull the data off of the ssd?
So if it goes to read only before we update the firmware we're fucked?
you cant update once its in read only, i tried, unless you know how to rewrite firmware on a chipbase level
ive had to send mine back to samsung
i have the same issue with 970 evo plus what the clone software called big bro ):
Hello ! So I’m using the same cloning software and it’s saying I need 117 mbs even though the storage I bought is the exact same storage. Also I’m not even able to ask access my drive, it says I don’t have permission to access the folder and nothing works to get access of it, since it says it’s in write only
ahhh i think you mentioned your dead drive is 980 and your new one is 990? i think the filing system may have different sizing, return it and maybe use the exact same model
What do you think about acronis vs clonezilla?
New Firmweare seems to be affacted by same problem ins't it?
Have you experienced it?
@@TMProjection i just istalling today and seems ok but i am scared! i red that online but i am not sure
@@RnR8x i think its best to have a backup 2tb sitting spare just incase. ill keep this noted and if it happens again ill post about it and wont use samsung nvmes ever again
@@RnR8x where did you read this btw, did they have evidence of the failure?
Yep, new firmware doesn't fix the problem, at least for the 990 pro 2tb.
Mine died a couple of days ago. Yesterday found out that it is actually read-only. Luckily I made a complete backup to my 970 Evo as I was reinstalling windows 11 in an attempt to fix the problem. I updated the 990 firmware a couple of days after buying it, but it didn't solve the degradation issue.
A week ago magician showed 'fair' status and yesterday it was 'critical'. I'm pissed off because I won't return the drive as my entire digital identity is on that drive. No more Samsung for me.
I am off Samsung now. This is the 3rd drive failing
I actually did. Yes.
@@Johow great
Any idea what can i do if the drive is showing in lshw but not in fdisk ? Really dissapointed. I lost all my data fgs
whats lshw, dont think ive heard of that, what OS you using?
My pc wont go into windows because my 980pro is in read only mode and I cant fix the boot rec. Im thinking of buying the 990pro to clone it to. Should that fix my problem?
if the size is similar it should get you back into your os on your clone, then you could RMA the dead one
@@TMProjection one more question. Do I need to fear it bricking the new drive when cloning it?
@@PokerRosses00 nah the issue is in its firmware and not the data itself
@@TMProjection thanks for the response!
I have a fu**ing 980 Pro 2TB - with that f'd up firmware. It went into read only. I cant update the firmware with magician now. But will the cloning still work?
it should make the data usable again, but not the drive, you have to RMA the drive to samsung themselves
Did you ever get your data back? I'm having the same issue and I'm trying to figure out how to save my data.
I got it back by buying a simple hardware copy tool on Amazon. You have to buy a new SSD, plug it into one port and the broken one in the other port. You hit copy. And it copies stupidly one drive to the other. Took hours. Ended with a error. But it works perfectly.
I had to send a ton of pictures to FU**ING samsung and a Video, me drilling a hole in the old chip, before samsung sent a replacement.
Same thing happened to me yesterday.
I need to copy all my files there are very important
best of luck buddy
i have 980 2tb and i dont have receit its 2021 cant find how to get in toch with samsung so i have dead 980
ill need to get you the email for their support, if you got a screenshot of your purchase that should be enough, if you bougbt it online perhaps
Brooo I'm currently having issues with my 970 Evo plus
get another one, clone the data, return the dodgy one
just had mine die on me after 2 years of use, rip my data. Thanks samsung
BUTTERS, youuurreee grounded
