The M.2 256GB SSD in this MBA W/Red Sensors Won't Boot or Mount

Mid-2012 Macbook Air 11.6" A1406 256GB M.2...

I removed the SSD from an unknown-condition MBA 11.6", Mid-2012. It boots to a question mark, so I pulled the SSD and it has pale-red moisture sensors. I assume it's gotten wet. Would liquid kill this SSD so that it wouldn't even show up at all in a drive enclosure plugged into another Mac?

I plugged it in, unplugged, then loaded Disk Utility wherein there was no SSD to see. One odd thing is how long Disk Utility took to load. So maybe it sees _something_, but can't load it?

I also tried Drive Genius 4: NADA!

I removed it from the enclosure, then cleaned it using 99.9% Tech Grade Isopropyl Alcohol. Dried it then repeated the exercise, again, NADA.

I assume this drive is dead?

Anything else to do other than add it to my Xmas tree?

Thanks!

Did you put it in an OWC Envoy? The is a red dot on the sticks that is not an LSI.

Sounds like a dead SSD. I had the same symptoms with an SSD from a water damaged Macbook Pro. It had corrosion too, changed the affected parts, still no work.

So, after a few hours in the Envoy enclosure, I get a light, but no mount. I am going to dry it slowly to see if that helps, but it's been drying on my shelf for a week now, in a sealed box with desiccant, so I'm not sanguine about the result.

I don't see anyone suggesting online that SSD data recovery is as successful even as spinning HDs although I don't see anything really definitive on this. It's a different animal entirely I assume and probably pricier. I tried my own tools, such as they are, but it's not showing up so I can't apply any fix to a device I can't see.

Thanks for the responses, I was trying to get a sense if water would KILL an SSD dead like that although I should have just known that it could given the havoc liquids can wreak on logic boards. It's not like SSDs have some special water-proof coating . . . although that's not the worst idea ever!
