Data Recovery
Every computer has storage files devices. These devices can be: Hard drives, notebook’s hard drive, CDs, DVDs, diskettes, Zip drive, memory card, pen drives, etc.
In these devices you can find the operational system e all information used and archived in your computer.
But, the truth is, these devices are subjects to failures and accident that can cause the lost of your valuable files: mechanical failures, electric failures, virus action, bad system functioning, information deletion, format, problems with water, fire, smoke, and others.
Data Recovery is the effort to rescue info lost in those or similar situations.
Insecure Data
Our data is not always secure and sometimes is too late to do something to protect them. That’s why Data Recovery business is growing so fast around the world with some many companies offering solutions.
The truth is we never imagine it can happen with us. “I ended up with nothing” – One day, while starting her computer, a friend heard a strange sound. With a burning smell, her computer turned off. She couldn’t turn her computer on again, a Pentium III with 2 years.
Even after installing new mother board, sound card and power supply, her computer didn’t turn on. Hard drive was removed and installed in another commuter, but, as you can imagine, she couldn’t access her data.
In that hard drive, she was keeping her PhD papers, and all her classes. No hard copies, no backups. Since now she can’t access her data, she is now looking for a company that can help her, to at least try to salve some of those files.
But the question is: are these files more valuable than the price for an eventual data recovery? And if yes, which values and services she should look in a data recovery company?
Information on Risk
I’m pretty sure that my friend’s history is totally familiar to you. The good thing is nowadays internet can provide valuable resources to help you with your data recovery. An example is this data recovery blog from DTIData, a great site with a lot of resources, where you can find information about how to recover your hard drive, your exchange server, your NTFS, your iPod, or even raid data recovery.
But how it happens? Why suddenly your hard drive doesn’t work anymore? How can we prevent this situation? Is it possible recovering any data? Is my data impossible to be recovered?
A future article will explain.
