All those articles are very theoretical, in reality 1 pass of dd /dev/zero makes things unrecoverable, for recent SSD since trim is enabled by default you can't recover anything, I deleted a document by mistake on an SSD and it was impossible to get back, the moment I pressed delete on windows the trim command was sent and everything was erased on the ssd.

Pro recovery compagny that are not shady know that SSD recovery with TRIM is impossible.

The article is light on details and assume a lot of things. he doesn't prove anything, show us that after succesful trim you're able to recover anything.

From my experience it's impossible.
