My dell mini has been sitting catching dust for a year. As far as I can remember my last attempt to repair the device was failed and came to a conclusion in order to fix it, I need to buy a new PCI-e SSD which I don't think it is worth it. When googling last week, I came across to this website. This kind tech guy shared his dell mini repairing tips.
In summary, Here are the steps:
1. Get USB Pen Drive and format is with Fat32. Make it boot-able dos.
2. Download the following STEC SSD 8 / 16GB util firmware and unzip.
3. Take the mcru004.exe and put it in USB drive.
4. Boot your dellmini using the USB drive.
5. Navigate to the mcru004.exe and run. If its in root type c:\mcru004 and press enter.
6. Hands up! do not touch anything or switch off. Let the process complete.
7. You will be back at the C:\ prompt
8. Congrats your SSD is fixed. Switch mini9 off and install any OS you want.
You can find all the need files in the link on the website I mentioned above.
Good luck.
