Data Recovery Common Issues:
What is data recovery?
Data recovery is the process of retrieving deleted or inaccessible data from failed electronic storage media such as computer hard disk drives, removable media, optical devices and tape cartridges.
Your data can become inaccessible due to a software problem, computer virus, mechanical or electrical malfunction or a deliberate human act.
Is my data recoverable?
In many instances, yes. Like other mechanical components, hard drives are subject to mechanical failure over time. It is not a question of if, but when. Common signs of mechanical failure are:
- Clicking
- Ticking
- Grinding
- Humming
- Buzzing
If your hard drive is making any strange noises, do not continue to power on the drive or attempt DIY software recovery tools as this can result in further damage to your hard drive and quickly lead to permanent data loss!!
Regardless of the cause of your data loss, our experienced technicians are able to successfully recover lost data 70% – 75% of the time.
What are some common signs of media failure?
This varies by media type, but computer hard drives often make unusual noises when a mechanical component is damaged or off track. Clicking, whirring and grinding sounds are particularly serious symptoms.
Other common symptoms include:
- Visibly Damaged Electronics
- Error Messages Indicating Corruption or Unrecognized File Formats
- Signs of Virus Infection
- Your Hard Drive Does Not Power On
- Your Computer Does Not Recognize Your Hard Drive
If you notice any of these symptoms, turn your computer off immediately and contact Inceptial Systems Data Recovery Services to set up a risk-free media evaluation.
What is the evaluation for Data Recovery process?
Step 1 – We will determine whether the problems are physical (hardware), logical (software structures) or both.
Step 2 – If the determination is physical, we then determine whether the needed parts for repairs are in our extensive inventory or if we will have to source them from our vendors.
Step 3 – Once we have access to the drive, we will make an absolute sector-by-sector mirror image of your hard disk to our equipment where the process will continue.
Step 4 – The next step is to evaluate the condition of the data structure & determine how much of the data is salvageable.
Step 5 – When the evaluation process is completed, we will contact you with the results of the evaluation & tell you exactly where in the original price range your recovery will fall. We will need your approval to proceed from this point.
Solutions to Data Loss:
Backing up Data
The reality of hard drives is that they are going to crash sometime. It is not a question of if, but when. Nothing can prevent data loss better than performing routine backups of all your data. Use good anti-virus software package, updated regularly.
How often should I backup my data?
Backups should be performed on a regular basis. The frequency of your backups will depend upon the maximum acceptable amount of work that would be lost in the event of a catastrophic failure.
Which backup method should I use?
A complete backup is a full backup of the entire server or PC client hard drive. For a server, this includes all volumes, directories, and files. For a PC client, this includes all drives, directories, and files.
Is one hard disk drive better than another?
When purchasing a hard disk drive, it is important to understand and verify the hard disk drive is suitable for your use and has or does not have the options you may or may not need. Unfortunately, with hard disk drive technologies changing everyday it is can be sometimes confusing and frustrating when looking to purchase a hard disk drive.
Over the last few years, the reliability and storage capacity of hard disks has increased dramatically to meet the demands of powerful and disk hungry operating systems. However, there are occasions where hard disks fail.
We at Inceptial Systems have experience with every hard drive manufacturer and do not believe that any one manufacturer is better than another. We believe that every drive manufacturer can and will experience issues with their products from time to time.
One very good guide is to base your decision on the experience friends or coworkers.
What is Data Recovery?
Data Recovery process is the process where Inceptial Systems can recover your data at a specific point in time, in case it has been permanently deleted or mangled during a data import. Data Recovery was formerly known as ‘Data Restoration.’
How long does it take to do Data recovery on my device?
Our goal is to return your data to you within two to five working days. However, because of the complexity of data recovery there will be times when it will take longer. After performing our initial evaluation, we will provide you with an estimated time to restore your lost data
How much does data recovery cost?
The cost of data recovery varies significantly from case to case. Not only are there many different types of devices–hard disk drives, solid-state drives, USB flash drives and SD cards, RAID arrays, etc.–but there are also many different reasons why you might need data recovered from any of these devices.
The work that goes into these recoveries can vary significantly. And it is that work, that labor our expert engineers have to perform, that determines the pricing for our service
Is the pick Up and delivery Service Safe.
Yes, we offer convenient and secure pickup and delivery services to your home, office or any location.
How much does it cost to have my hard drive examined?
At Inceptial Systems evaluations are based on data size, storage capacity, storage type and time taken to give substantial feedback. We will then advice on cost of recovering the data.
How do I get my data back?
We put our customers’ recovered data onto brand-new, healthy storage media or the customer may choose to provide their own storage media for their recovered data.
If my data is not recovered, will I pay any fee?
We work strictly on No Recovery – No Charge policy, but we will charge evaluation or diagnosis fee based on storage type and data size. If data is not recovered you pick your drive or pay delivery to have it shipped to your location.
What is your success rate?
Success rates also vary by media type. Our overall recovery success rate is 80 percent, and we always provide an accurate individual analysis of your case before starting work.
Are there instances where lost data cannot be recovered?
Yes. There are instances where the damage to the hard drive is so severe that data recovery is not possible. This usually occurs when the read/write heads actually “crash” and gouge the magnetic storage media to the point where the data is destroyed.
