Data Recovery can get very complex and dependent on the problem it requires a vast skill set including knowledge in operating systems, file systems, programming, electronics, firmware structure and the list goes one. Therefore we highly recommend that you send your data recovery case to a professional firm that has the necessary experience to recover your data safely. Self recovery attempts often worsen the drives condition and therefore reduce the chances of recovery.

Some of the most common failures on hard drives are:

• 1. A corruption of the file systems partition. Which will prevent your operating system from being able to read any data. This type of failure can be resolved by logical data recovery procedures
• 2. electronic defects on the PCB (printed circuit board) This type of failure can often be resolved by a combination of re-soldering components, replacing the PCB and the reprogramming of integrated circuits
• 3. A failure of one or several heads, which are required to read your data from the magnetic surface of the platters. This is a physical recovery procedure which often can be determined by a noticeable clicking sound coming from the drive.
