Hard Drives can fail.
We can help
When you feel like you've just lost all of your data, there's a chance it's still salvagable. With our Top of the Line Data Recovery tools, we can save almost any data that might've normally been lost!
Data Recovery is a process of salvaging (retrieving) inaccessible, lost, corrupted, damaged or formatted data from secondary storage, removable media or files, when the data stored in them cannot be accessed in a normal way. The data is most often salvaged from storage media such as internal or external hard disk drives (HDDs), solid-state drives (SSDs), USB flash drives, magnetic tapes, CDs, DVDs, RAID subsystems, and other electronic devices. Recovery may be required due to physical damage to the storage devices or logical damage to the file system that prevents it from being mounted by the host operating system (OS).
Types of data damage
Logical damage
The term "logical damage" refers to situations in which the error is not a problem in the hardware and requires software-level solutions.
Corrupt partitions and file systems, media errors
In some cases, data on a hard disk drive can be unreadable due to damage to the partition table or file system, or to (intermittent) media errors. In the majority of these cases, at least a portion of the original data can be recovered by repairing the damaged partition table or file system using specialized data recovery software. Software rescue can image media despite intermittent errors, and image raw data when there is partition table or file system damage.
Sometimes data can be recovered using relatively simple methods and tools more serious cases can require expert intervention, particularly if parts of files are irrecoverable. Data carving is the recovery of parts of damaged files using knowledge of their structure.
Overwritten data
After data has been physically overwritten on a hard disk drive (HDD), it is generally assumed that the previous data are no longer possible to recover. Solid-state drives (SSD) overwrite data differently from hard disk drives (HDD) which makes at least some of their data easier to recover.
Lost, deleted, and formatted data
Sometimes, data present in the physical drives (Internal/External Hard disk, Pen Drive, etc.) gets lost, deleted and formatted due to circumstances like virus attack, accidental deletion or accidental use of SHIFT+DELETE. In these cases, data recovery software are used to recover/restore the data files.
Logical bad sector
In the list of logical failures of hard disks, logical bad sector is the most common in which data files cannot be retrieved from a particular sector of the media drives. To resolve this, software is used to correct the logical sectors of the media drive. If this is not enough, the hardware containing the logical bad sectors must be replaced.
