Question: The SATA power connector on my SSD is burnt. The SATA data connector is fine. Is there a way to recover any data? I’m looking for a DIY solution if possible.

Answer:no way. it needs power to work. so unless you can get it to power on you’re out of luck.

good thing you got back-ups to fall back on. you do got back-ups right? tough way to learnt he lesson but hopefully it’ll stick this time and you won’t lose all your data again!!
