3. Typical steps (if you accept the risk)

  1. Identify exact Controller = SSS6698-BB and NAND ID using ChipGenius (free) or USBDev ID lookup.
  2. Download a compatible SMI MPTool version (from USBDev.ru, FlashBoot.ru, or similar).
  3. Run as Admin, short pins 29-30 (or 31-32) on the NAND to force “ROM mode” if drive is frozen – but that’s advanced.
  4. In MPTool → Scan USB → Debug → set correct NAND settings → Start (will erase all data).

4.3 Mass Production (MP) Tool Reverse Engineering

Official MP tools (e.g., SSS_MP_6698_v4.17.40.rar) are "free" to download but opaque. Using Process Monitor and API Monitor (freeware), we isolated the USB control sequences: solid state systems sss6698bb free

We rewrote a minimal MP tool in Python (50 lines) to reinitialize a bricked drive. Title: Demystifying the SSS6698-BB Flash Controller: A Free

3. Free Tools Ecosystem

| Tool | License | Purpose | |------|---------|---------| | lsusb/usb-devices | GPL | Detect controller in fail-safe mode | | Wireshark + USBpcap | BSD | Capture vendor commands | | pyUSB | BSD | Send raw control transfers | | sssscanner (Python) | MIT | Extract MP tool firmware from Windows binaries | | flashrom (modified) | GPL | Read/write NAND via debug commands | | OpenOCD (with custom cfg) | GPL | JTAG-like access via USB debug mode | Identify exact Controller = SSS6698-BB and NAND ID

These tools replace costly commercial units (e.g., PC-3000 Flash, Rusolut).

Method 3: RMPrepUSB (Free)

RMPrepUSB is a free bootable USB preparation tool that includes a low-level zeroing function.

This method is less likely to fix firmware corruption but works for logical corruption that standard format cannot clean.
