wd charger empty data

[Jakiro]

Received a WD drive unresponsive over USB.
Backed up ROM and attempted unlock.
Soldered a SATA interface and backed up all modules.
Module 190 from both copies and both methods (whole module reading) is ~99.9% zeros.
PPA reads also return no data.
Is there any recovery path left, or is it game over?
What’s the most likely cause?

T2 (190) is corrupt. Sometimes 190 can be fixed depending on the issue. Or PC3000 with DE can scan via PBA to find data, but that depends on tge firmware.
