My drive was working perfectly till 2 days ago. Nothing happened anymore when I connect it to my MacBook Pro. I cannot see the drive also in the disk utility app.
I tried to reset the NVRAM and the SMC on my Mac but nothing change.
I tried to connect it on a windows computer, same problem.
I noticed that even nothing happened, the drive is a bit warm so it makes me think there is a kind of connection inside.
There are 3 partitions on the drive, one for TimeMachine, an APFS partition for my storage on MacOS, and a small NTFS partition to transfer files with some other computer if needed.
The drive is under warranty, but if I send it to Sandisk, they will just replace it and I will loose my datas right ?
The drive never fail, and I paid a lot of attention to it.
Could it be the controller between the SSD NVME disk and the USB-C port that is not working anymore ?
If so, should I try to open it and connect it to an other usb controller ?
Or is there an other option to try ?
Thanks
