Physical Failures in External Hard Drives
Physical damage to external hard drives requires professional data recovery expertise. Our team uses specialized tools and cleanroom environments to handle even the most severe physical damage, ensuring safe data extraction.
-
Head Crashes: The drive’s read-write head contacts the spinning disk surface, causing damage to the disk area.
-
Spindle Failures: Over time, spindle damage causes misalignment, leading to read/write errors.
-
Bad Sectors: Wear and tear create bad sectors on the drive, making certain data unreadable.
-
PCB Damage: Power surges or physical impacts can damage the drive’s circuit board, affecting its functionality.
-
Motor Failures: A malfunctioning motor prevents the drive’s platters from spinning, making the drive inaccessible.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re unable to access data stored on secondary storage, removable media, or files due to hardware failure, accidental deletion, virus or malware attacks, physical damage, or other unforeseen issues, data recovery can help. It involves retrieving inaccessible, lost, corrupted, damaged, or formatted data. Data recovery is essential if you’ve lost important data and need it restored.
Data recovery services can retrieve various types of data, including documents, photos, videos, audio files, emails, and more. They can also recover data from applications or databases. However, the success of the recovery process depends on the severity of the data loss.
The ability to recover lost data depends on the type and scope of the data loss. While some cases can recover almost all data, severe damage may prevent any meaningful data recovery. Although data recovery services cannot promise 100% recovery, skilled technicians who use advanced tools and techniques have a higher success rate.
The duration of the data recovery process depends on the complexity of the situation and the volume of data to be recovered. Simple cases may take a few hours or days, while more complex cases can take up to several weeks. Your service provider will offer an estimated timeline after evaluating your case.
The cost of data recovery services varies based on factors such as the severity of the data loss, the type of storage device, and the urgency of the recovery. Some providers may offer a free evaluation to give you an estimate of the price. It is important to inquire about all associated fees and charges before committing to a service.
Once your data has been successfully recovered, it is typically transferred to a new storage device, such as a USB drive or external hard drive, and then returned to you. For smaller amounts of data, it may be delivered electronically.
To prevent future data loss, consider taking several proactive steps: regularly back up your data, use reliable antivirus software, keep your operating system and applications updated, and handle your devices with care to avoid physical damage. Additionally, if you suspect any issues, promptly turn off your device to prevent further damage.
