How to Recover Data from Formatted Hard Disk

Hard disk is the main storage media of our computer system, where we store all our important files. But we need to format our system’s hard drive time to time when data inside the hard disk occupy complete space or attack by some dangerous viruses etc In other words we format our hard disk due to lack of security and storage problem. Sometimes we forgot to keep a backup of our important files like documents, videos, photos etc before formatting the hard disk. In the early age loss of data made people very irksome and there were no alternatives available at that time to get them back. But today’s scenario is not like that; we can retrieve our precious data even after the hard disk get formatted. Data recovery from the formatted hard disk is possible by using data recovery software.

Do you know when hard disk got formatted what happens with the data that were inside the hard disk? When hard disk is formatted all the windows attributes are already set to default values and data still exist on the hard drive of the computer. Therefore, data recovery is possible even after formatting the hard disk through data recovery software.

There are certain steps which need to follow to retrieve data from formatted hard disk:

·        Boot your system in the normal method then install data recovery software into your hard drive. Avoid installation of anything on the hard drive; it may cause overwrite the data on the drive.

·        Run Data Recovery Software and select “Recover from formatted drive”.

·        Select hard disk either physical or logical; as all the lost data exist in it. Logical drive represents the physical partition of the hard disk and the physical drive represents the complete hard drive. Save the data on the main hard disk of the system.

By following all the above steps one can easily restore data from a formatted hard disk. In the market you may have lots of data recovery software but the question is that which one will securely retrieve your data? Before purchasing any data recovery software it is better to try trial version of it. Internet is the best alternative to find the trial versions of variety of data recovery software. If a particular trial version of the data recovery software can meet your requirements then go for the full version.

Unistal has already developed Quick Recovery range of data recovery software which securely retrieves corrupted, deleted and formatted data from different types of file system which includes FAT, NTFS etc. All the data recovery software can easily recover files, images and confidential data in a single click.

How to Recover Data from Undetectable Hard Disk

Losing data due to hard disk drive fail is a very frustrating experience. Most of the time users of the system recover these lost data with utilities built right into Windows. Hard disk becomes undetectable due to following reasons:

·        Firmware corruption

·        Electronic Failure

·        Mechanical Failure

·        Logical Corruption

All the above reasons are responsible for the corruption or undetectable of the hard disk.  Data exists in the hard drive is recoverable or not is depends upon what exactly had happened with the damaged or undetectable hard disk.

Firmware Corruption: Hard disk firmware indicates a software code that embedded and controls the physical hard disk of hardware. The corruption of the firmware that is in the computer’s hard disk causes undetectable or unreadable of the hard disk. If the hard disk is reprogrammed or repaired, the data exist in the hard disk can be recovered.

Symptoms:

1.      As soon as the power is on the hard disk spins up but it recognized incorrectly or not recognized by the computer system.

2.      Though the hard disk recognize correctly by the computer system thereafter system gets hang during the boot process.

Electronic Failure: when electronic fails, it creates problem on the controller board of the genuine hard disk. Therefore, computer system faces problems like electrical surge or power spike that hit the controller board and makes it undetectable to the BIOS.

Symptoms:

·        When powered is on, hard disk does not spin up and it appears dead or unrecognized by the computer.

·        Disk starts to knock, as the motor fails to spin.

Mechanical Failure: Mechanical hard disk failure means the broken parts of the hard disk is denying to do work. The drive makes some unexpected clicking sound when attempt to access the file inside the system. You need not to worry about your data, the data in the hard disk will remain safe but to recover your data you have to hire an expertise. Mechanical failure basically occur when internal component of hard disk goes faulty and the hard disk become inaccessible.

Symptoms:

·        The hard disk makes some clicking sound immediately after the powered is on

·        As the disk is powered on, initiates some music tone.

Logical Error: Logical error is totally different from electrical and mechanical problems. Logical error does not affect the disk physically; it only affects the information on it. So, to deal with the logical error is not an easy task.

Some examples of Logical Errors are accidental deletion, file system corruption, software bugs, viruses and malware etc.

There are some another reason behind the non-recognition of the hard disk:

·        Your hard drive is not configured properly or you may changed incorrectly the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) settings like access mode, boot sequence etc.

·        Disk controller are faulty.

·        Hard drive interface cable are broken down.

·        Incorrect jumper setting.

The BIOS function that is inside our computer system initially tests all the hardware components of the system as soon as the system’s powered is on. Whenever BIOS fails to detect any hardware, that particular hardware becomes unavailable to the computer system. Such kind of activity makes your data inaccessible and one of the reason of data loss.

To solve these problems you have to follow certain steps:

·        Set BIOS setting to default.

·        Verify the jumper setting.

·        Check all the cables are working properly or not.

·        Check disk controllers.

If the above points are checked, thereafter hard disk is undetectable then it becomes necessary to reprogram or repair the hard disk, so that the data exist in the hard disk can be recover safely.
