Losing data is a complicated situation and only those who experience it know how desperate it is. In most data recovery scenarios, it is possible to recover all or part of the data, but there are some critical scenarios in which it is impossible to recover the data, one of which is when the read head comes into contact with the platters (where the data is stored) and partially or completely scratches the surface.
When data can be recovered
In cases of data loss for logical reasons, such as formatting, corrupted files or encryption by ransomware, data recovery is possible using our exclusive technologies. See how to recover a hard drive.
Some tips:
- If you notice a different noise from your hard drive, turn it off immediately;
- If dropped or impacted, do not switch on again;
- Use a tool that manages the health of your hard drive;
- Check-disk the operating system regularly;
- If you notice that your hard disk is slowing down, back it up quickly and replace it with a new one.
When is formatted drive recovery still possible?
Formatted drive recovery is possible in most cases if the data has not yet been overwritten by new information.
Even if the disk has been partially damaged – by scratches or bad sectors – advanced recovery techniques can work to reconstruct the files.
The important thing is to stop using the drive immediately and seek professional help before the data is permanently lost.
