Data Recovery Myths

Do not continue attempting to power up your hard drive if it is making unusual noises. Don’t put a hard drive in the freezer or heat it. Do not drop or bang your hard drive around. Do not open your hard drive under any circumstances.

  • 1. “If your hard drive is clicking it is mechanical failure and needs to be sent to a clean room for service.” This is not always true. The clicking of hard drives could be a multitude of different problems. 
  •  2. “If your hard drive stops working or no longer recognizes, it won’t hurt it to tap or hit the drive.” This is never true. When you hit or tap your hard drive, it can cause the heads to crash, or the heads to scratch the platter surface which is where your data lies. 
  •  3. “If your drive is acting up, you can drop the drive on the floor and possibly fix it.” This will only cause more problems to your hard drive. If your hard drive is already failing in some way, to drop it would only worsen those problems. It could even make the hard drive completely unrecoverable. 
  • 4. “If your hard drive fails you can freeze the drive and get it to boot up and work again.” This is not always true. Some people think that if you put your hard drive in the freezer, the temperature has an effect on the interior of the drive and can fix the problem. But the truth is, the consequences of this action can be unfix-able. The longer the hard drive has been used, the more the insides are degraded which causes the freeze it myth to no longer work.
