Look at the pads in that photo, on the left and right. Those are for SOIC-16. Would it be possible to remove the SOIC-8 and solder a SOIC-16
chip on those pins?

<p>
<b>On the X200S the flash chip is underneath the board, in a WSON package.
- The pinout is very much the same as a SOIC-8, except you need to solder (there are no clips available).

In this image, a pin header was soldered onto the WSON. Another solution might be to de-solder the WSON-8 chip and put a SOIC-8 there instead.
Check the list of SOIC-8 flash chips at <a href="../hcl/gm45_remove_me.html#flashchips">../hcl/gm45_remove_me.html#flashchips</a> but
do note that these are only 4MiB (32Mb) chips. The only X200 SPI chips with 8MiB capacity are SOIC-16. For 8MiB capacity in this case,
the X201 SOIC-8 flash chip (Macronix 25L6445E) might work.

Another possible solution: ground GPIO33 and boot up in non-descriptor mode. This might make software flashing possible, if
it's possible to circumvent any flashing protections that might exist.
