One thing I remember from my IT training was that anything and everything can be recovered, it just depends on how much you want it and cost

pretty sure you cant recover from those anymore..... in pieces and you can see some parts burning too...

Yeah, imagine the worst jigsaw puzzle ever where none of the parts actually fit together and you have to put it together blindfolded.

Nope, because with enough money and resources, I can make anything unrecoverable and I get to go first

I mean that’s a good way to approach things, but short of melting it down, this is pretty much impossible to recover.

Did that one catch fire for a second? What was that?

Yeah, kinda like hitting rocks with a hammer and you get a spark, sometimes these sparks last a little longer.

Maybe just a cap?

These have been powered down for a few months so any caps should have dissipated by now.
