  • This section deals with the most common causes of hard disk drive (HDD) failure, the symptoms you might notice, and the steps you might take to recover your data. You may read more about how we restore inaccessible data in our data recovery process section.


Hard Disk Failure Explained

There are many potential reasons for data to become inaccessible, and many different possible symptoms; the most common of which are listed here.

If your device is experiencing any of the following problems, simply click on the relevant link and jump to the appropriate section of this page where you will find out more about the likely underlying causes of the problem and the steps that will be required to restore your data.

Motor Failure

Where the hard drive fails to spin up due to seized bearings. Commonly the result of physical damage from, for example, being dropped.

Electrical Failure

Where the Printed Circuit Board becomes damaged and fails to control power and data. This can be caused by component failure, malicious damage or a power surge.

Head Failure

The Read/Write Heads in a hard drive can fail for many reasons including the natural failure of components through general wear and tear, damage caused by physical trauma and even from dirt finding its way into the drive.

Firmware Failure

Firmware is a piece of software that instructs the hard drive. If this software fails, hard drives can behave erratically or, in some cases, will not work at all. Firmware failure can share symptoms with other problems such as head failure or a drive that is not spinning up to the required speed.

Logical Failure

Logical issues are not physical problems and the hard drive's physical components are working perfectly, but the data is still inaccessible. Examples of this include deletion, the corruption of data and formatting.

Recovering Data from a Hard Disk Drive

What ever has happened to your hard drive, the recovery process we use is data-safe. Where possibly, we will always create a clone of the media before attempting recovery, this way it is always possible for us to return the drive in the same state as we received it. All work is carried out in-house and we have a Class 100 clean air environment for all work where the drive has to be opened. Most manufacturers will honour any remaining warranty should we need to open a drive.

With modern hard disks recovering data has become a more technical challenge than earlier models. The failure modes though have not changed and remain as follows
