Hard Drive Data Recovery

The data is still there, right?

The data is still there, if you have the means to recover it. What is the most important at this step is not to aggravate the damage. If you have just suffered a loss of access to your files, then the one thing to remember is not to panic!

We can recover lost data in practically all situations, regardless of whether the hard drive has crashed, you reformatted the drive, or erased important files.

But you have to know that modern hard drives are extremely fragile. If you continue using mechanically degrading drive, it can completely damage hard drive platters and make data recovery technically impossible. We had cases when liquid was spilled on a laptop hard drive damaging electronics, but liquid did not get inside the drives. Those cases 100% recoverable! However, unprofessional attempts to reanimate semi-working PCBs lead to creating many bad sectors, making data recovery still possible, but with many corrupt files.

The same happens when files are accidentally erased from a hard drive. When you deleted a file, it is not wiped from the hard drive completely. Only the pointer gets removed that is indexing to the deleted file. Due to this, that space is marked as a free space and ready to be used by another file. Therefore, it is always advisable not to access the drive after deletion. Since modern running OS does a lot of work in the background it is better to shut down the system completely to prevent important files being overwritten.

There's a very thin difference between getting all your data back and completely unrecoverable system in some cases. Don't be that statistic! If you are not sure, please call us first before doing anything. That may save your files and make recovery the best possible in the circumstances.
