I hear from some people data from SSD can't be recovered, because it's not a platter HD. WTF???!!. You can recover data from SSD as well. Or am i missing something?.

Turns-out Samsung has written a nice White Paper about understanding of SSD technology. http://www.samsung.com/global/busin...te/SSD/global/html/whitepaper/whitepaper.html

Very informative read.
