Common Hard Drive Faults We Recover From

Our experienced engineers can recover data from all types of hard drive faults, including:

1. Mechanical Failure
   • Faulty read/write heads, spindle motor failure, or damaged platters.
   • Common in HDDs; often causes clicking or grinding noises.
2. Bad Sectors
   • Physical or logical damage to drive sectors that prevent file access.
3. Firmware Corruption
   • Failure of internal software controlling the drive.
4. Logical Corruption
   • File system errors, accidental formatting, or virus damage.
5. PCB (Printed Circuit Board) Failure
   • Electrical issues damaging the drive’s circuit board.
6. Accidental File Deletion
   • Recovering files that have been mistakenly deleted or lost.
7. Drive Not Recognised by BIOS/System
   • Drive fails to appear in the system due to hardware or software issues.
8. Power Surges or Electrical Failure
   • Voltage spikes causing electrical damage to components.
9. Head Crash
   • Physical damage to the drive’s heads and platters.
10. Platter Damage
    • Scratches or contamination on magnetic platters of HDDs.
11. SSD Controller Failure
    • Failure of SSD’s memory controller, leading to inaccessible data.
12. NAND Flash Wear (SSD Degradation)
    • SSD failure caused by excessive write cycles and worn-out memory cells.
13. Accidental Formatting or Initialisation
    • Drive formatted or re-initialised, resulting in data loss.
14. Overheating
    • Excessive heat causing internal damage or drive malfunction.
15. Encrypted Drive Failures
    • BitLocker, VeraCrypt, or other encryption failures making data inaccessible.
