    I purchased an X1 Carbon last year around March. It had been working perfectly and never shown any signs of issue. Yesterday the computer ran out of batteries and went into hibernate mode. When I plugged it in and turned it on, it would never boot. It would simply error out and say 2100 detection error on hdd0 (Main HD)...

    It's under warranty and I called Lenovo and they are sending a replacement SSD, but obviously there's some things on the drive that I would like to recover. Is recovery from an SSD even possible? Is there anyone I can send it to that performs this task? It's the 180GB version of the drive and I believe they are a proprietary form factor, correct?

    Any help would be great. Thanks!

    No.

    That's why backups are even more of a must with SSDs than they are with conventional hard drives.
