Recovering SSD partitions

[dmoney1980]

Quick question: since SSD's use TRIM, is it possible to recovery older partitions and / or files from an SSD? (Win 7 OS)

If the recovery program can see the 'lost' partitions then yes. However after the recovery, it's by chance if your files are right.

I was under the impression that TRIM erases any delete files/data, making all SSD drives unrecoverable

It's not all deleted files/data. Just ones where parts of it are in areas that it hasn't cleaned (preped for max performance). That along with the fact that not all SSD have the same garbage collection routin is where it turns into chance.

SSDs are recoverable... chances are it's more likely not 100% recoverable.
