Thanks for the thought but file recovery on SSDs is next to impossible due to trimming.

Yeah, I read about that.  There are some exceptions tho..

Is there anything you can do about it? Not much, really. However, there are exceptions from this rule. If the TRIM command has not been executed or is not supported by either the disk, the operating system, or the interface between the computer and SSD drive, you may still undelete files as if they were stored on a traditional disk. Currently, most SSD drives support TRIM. However, the current version of MacOS doesn’t, so you can often recover files deleted on a Mac PC. Older versions of Windows (before Vista) do not support TRIM. Finally, TRIM is not supported over USB and FireWire protocols, so your external SSD’s can be recover

Even then though, the chances of recovery are slim.

Thing is I always make sure trim is working correctly. What I should probably start doing is making sure my shit is backed up correctly too...

sounds like a good idea.
