The "health" of a hard drive is a strange thing. So, for some users, storage media can work for five to ten years, while for others, the first problems with HDD arise already in the second year of its use. Of course, a lot depends on the quality and size of the disc, as well as the operating conditions. But, unfortunately, few people are insured against damage to the hard drive and loss of information.
Data recovery with BadCopy Pro
One of the best options for recovering data from a damaged disk is to use the BadCopy Pro program. With it, you can quickly recover information in automatic mode. The recovery of the most popular formats is supported, including archives, text documents, graphic files, and so on. There should not be any difficulties with the principle of operation of this program, since it already has all the necessary step-by-step instructions, thanks to which even an inexperienced user can easily figure it out.
All operations in BadCopy Pro are performed using the "Recovery Setup Wizard". If the storage medium is very damaged, the recovery procedure can be delayed for a rather long period; moreover, it cannot be said with absolute certainty that all lost data will be recovered.
Other data recovery software
You can use DeadDiscDoctor to copy files from damaged hard drives. The application works on the principle of error detection. DeadDiscDoctor reads information on the medium in small blocks and, if errors are detected, reduces their size several times. Similar programs include File Salvage and Non-Stop Copy. It is recommended that you try different options.
If the quality of the copied information is not very important to you, or if you need to recover damaged data very quickly, you can use the Super Copy utility, which reads data from any medium in 20 minutes, while the amount of lost information is quite large. The interface is simple, you specify the data source and start the recovery procedure.
Don't forget to check your hard drive
At first, you may be completely indifferent to all sorts of errors and malfunctions of the hard disk, which is wrong. No one is safe from sudden hard drive breakdown. Therefore, do not forget to make timely backups of especially important data, as well as test the hard disk for errors. At the moment, there are quite a few programs for diagnosing HDD. In addition, the Windows operating system already has the necessary tools to complete this task.
