did you check if the LED turns purple? Also try inserting the pico a little earlier and look for the LED.
If that also doesn't work, you can use the Pico for defuse, that will definitely work. You can then use MLC2SD to replace the eMMC.
Alternativly you could also install MLC2SD, use the big...
Maybe you can do it on the command line tool with diskutil.
Or you might be able to find a third party tool which can do that.
Else it would probably the easiest to use another computer or to boot a Linux with gparted.
I don't have a Mac, so I can't test it
The Disk Utility should be able to do that. If Mac OS can't create a NTFS partition, you can also create an exFAT one, it should have the same ID as NTFS
If we had the keys form the otp, we could recrypt another SLC for this console. But everything on the SLC and MLC would be lost. So we would need the correct files for the devkit or whatever this is.
No uncorrectable ECC errors... that is untypical for SLC corruption... Maybe it ha a messed up system.xml but this doesn't look like the typical a SLC page became bad and corrupted the fw.img problem.
If you sent me the SLC and a list of the the ECC errors during the dump I can see which files are affected, so we could narrow down if it is SLC corruption or bad DRAM.
We could also run the memtest to see if the DRAM is good.

Don't restore the SLC yet, because with that we would...
hm yeah the versions look wrong, so the decryption probably failed. On the other hand the versions look close together, so maybe not? Very strange.
That is a standard retail console? What board revision does it have?
Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)
I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
@BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
