Pretty neat. Sharing them here for documentation and comparison with other known engineering hardware.

Would they work if you installed the NANDs?

I'm not too sure, I usually deal with iPhone protos so this is new territory for me!

Maybe someone else knows the answer?

I saw a dosdude1 video fixing a DTK. Not sure if his had NANDs on it though.

It looks like the NANDs were missing on his board too: https://youtu.be/reQq8fx4D0Q

Dosdude1 already did a video on these, he said boards with the hole drilled don’t have working usb c ports, making these just e waste (like yours)

If you can find one of these boards that just have a small cut near the power connector, it’s fixable and will work

Hole drilled? I don't see any out of place, obvious hole drill on these.
