Data Loss and Recovery In this digital world everyone has some kind of data on
their computers. Some have important business files then others have precious
family pictures. Whether it's photos or other data, it is stored on a machine
like computer, phones, digital cameras, USB flash drives, external drives
etc.
What if these devices stop working all of the sudden? For those who
think they have lost all their data as soon as the computer stops working, I
have to inform them that it is not true. If the machine has stopped working,
then there may be two kinds of problems, hardware and software. A hardware
problem is something like some part of that device like computer or phone has
stopped working. Software fault is the failure of an application like Operating
System. Whether it is a software or hardware problem, data can still be
retrieved. Depending of the severity of the problem in most cases data retrieval
is guaranteed. There is only one situation when data cannot be recovered and
that is when the platter of the hard drive so severely damaged by the drive
head. Talking of head, I realize that I should explain what kind of hardware is
involved inside a hard disk.
There are several parts inside a hard drive.
A PCB (circuit board) can also be named as the motherboard of the drive, a drive
head, a motor, platter etc. All the data is stored on platter in the form of 1's
and 0's. Motor rotates the platter and head is used to read the data or machine
language and is pushed to the computer processor via the motherboard of the hard
drive. Any part listed above can be moved back and forth. Usually anything can
be transplanted to read the platter. If a transplant is required then it may be
an expensive recovery. Many companies will charge a lot of money to recover data
from such a drive. The reason is because parts are usually expensive and the
cost of these parts even increases with shipping and handling when these are
ordered from another country. And of course labor to perform the recovery job is
another part of the price. Some types of recoveries like raid are expensive as
more than two drives are involved in the recovery process. Complicated data
recovery is always done in a separate dust free room. In many cases data can be
retrieved onsite.
Software problems can be caused by files corruption or
even hardware. Many times it will be a software problem if the machine is not
starting. This means the data will still be available. This is possible because
data is stored on hard drive, which is known as permanent storage. In this type
of situation data recovery professionals will access these storage device using
special devices. Most of the software problems these days occur due to viruses
and spyware. Power failure also takes part in the data loss process
PCB Prototype. A bad hardware like
motherboard or power supply can cause to fail a hard disk failure
too.
This article describe in detail about data loss and recovery from
computers and other devices like digital cameras and phones
China PCB Prototype. Readers get an
understanding of how data loss occurs and how data is recovered. It also
mentions the whole process of recovery and cost of recovery. This article
describes kinds of recoveries and reasons of data loss.
