Well there you go that's a lie.
They only need that to steal your crypto.
They should hand you a raw encrypted backup.

Guys .. Recovery companies request encryption password to do the recovery ?
they said it is not possible without it .
How far this is true ?

I encourage you to restore the data yourself.
In general, physical data recovery is not a DIY-thing.In my country i show to best company they say can not do anything.
They are not so professional companies , mostly they recover harddisk if data corrupted. but not physically damage.
Find a company that's experienced in physical recovery, then travel there (by yourself, with the disk). They are not so professional companies , mostly they recover harddisk if data corrupted. but not physically damage.

Trust no one.
If you hand it over to some external tech company chances are that they will tell you the data can not be recovered.
And the next thing you will see is that the funds have left the address.
Good thing it is encrypted.

Thanks guys alot ,
Any recommended Companies for recovery.

I see it the same way others do, technically spoken it's time consuming to restore, but possible.
The "chips", there should be 16 x storage chips, also on the front side? Then there some other kind of stuff for
firmware and comunication SATA, etc... which can also be broken, you (restoring person) can check each to know,
where's the fault and do a exchange or renew this parts.
So the company you contact, should IMHO exactly explain how the want to make the repair/restoring, etc...
so you know the conept they want to use.

It's simple.
There are 8 chips so you have a 1 on 8 chance that it is corrupted due to a hardware failure.
This means that chances are relatively high that the data is still intact.
If that was my drive i would pull a extended S.M.A.R.T report in Gnome Disks (read-only).
But you can only do so if the drive still communicates with the SATA bus.
Otherwise step one is that you will have to try to recover the data from each of these chips.
You can do this with a test clip socket adapter.

Do you think i have chance ? like logically , because it is encrypted.
Will you be able to decrypt it?If so, I guess you have chances to fix the SSD and make it usable. In my country, I have seen one professional who has fixed more physically damaged drive (I assumed your SSD is far better). It would be good to know where do you live (share if you have no problem).
Thanks alot for your information
Waiting more recommendation and information / companies guys

if the problem is a physically / hardware damage (SSD print, chips for firmware, power supply, etc... not the storage chips itself),
it should be possible for good hardware guys / engineer to e.g. SMD soldering the
chips and transfer them to a "new" plattfrom where you can run the disc. Other option could be to copy the chips 1:1
use it on a good SSD... (you need prof. hardware for this jobs!! and experiance!!)
Anyway this is a job for a professional (engineer) only.
Toshiba chip for storage is: TH58TEG8DDJTA20
software: data encrypt shouldn't be the problem as you - hopefully - know the key/password...
Bye
PS: shouldn't ne size 240GB?

The hard drive is physically damaged or only the filesystem? Are you sure, I mean absolutely sure it's an hardware failure?
If it's an hardware failure, you need to first find what electronic components are damaged. There might be components that can be easily replaced with no harm. But there are also others that probably make it impossible to recover data!
If data is encrypted or not, doesn't matter if the damage is physical. If you have the passwords/keys/etc to decrypt the data, then, doesn't matter if it is a hardware failure or software failure. If the problem can be fixed and you don't have the means to decrypt the data, then, it is useless to fix the drive!

If so then try to find them online.They are not so pro or companies , mostly they recover harddisk data corrupted. but not physically damage
Found some professional recovery services by myself and this one looks trusted : https://drivesaversdatarecovery.com/data-recovery-services/devices-supported/solid-state-drive-ssd-data-recovery/
But I can't vouch for them since I never used their services. So better contact them and try if there is any chance. You can find their contact details on the page itself.

I want opinion if there is a chance or no.

Since it was physically damaged there is no way to recover it on your own using softwares. The only way is to find a genuine professional to work on this and get your BTC if you are lucky.
Better find the professional in your country itself.

I have harddisk SSD external encrypted on true crypt , it stop working ( guess board not getting electric ) ,( 1 year ago )
My MISTAKE I let some people non professional work on it , I am not sure if they fuck the chips or not yet
Brand is : Kingston 250 GB
Is there any hope, any ideas how to fix it .
Please comment , ethically and gentleman agreement , who help me in an idea never thought about or it may this success or work i will hit back a message
with 1 BTC as GIFT.
