Sure, but that's why you're paying five-figure sums for the forensics boxes.
They already do this for pretty much every cellphone type under the sun, so as
soon as the demand emerges they'll do SSDs as well.  In addition the magic in
wear-levelling is where to move things to, when, and how, not in any magic re-
encoding of block data.  So the contents of the data blocks stay the same,
they're just in different locations.  This means that, once you exclude
metadata used by the FTL, what you'll see is the equivalent of a highly-
fragmented standard disk drive.  I'm not saying it'll be trivial, but it
shouldn't be that hard either.
