Data Recovery from Quantum 'AS' hard disk drivesThe Quantum Fireball 'AS' drive is very similar in apperance
and design to other hard disks in the Quantum Fireball range (eg.
the Quantum LA, Quantum LB etc). Whilst the entire Quantum Fireball
family is sometimes prone to developing electrical faults (see our
general Quantum
Data Recovery page) the 'AS' series develops unique
mechanical problems too. Quantum 'AS' hard disk failure - Data recovery informationModel: Quantum Fireball 'AS' series Symptoms: An (often) regular knocking sound is heard from the hard disk when the drive is powered on. The drive will not be recognised in the BIOS. (Non 'AS' models: If the Quantum hard disk is NOT an 'AS' model but IS knocking please visit our Quantum Data Recovery page as your drive (whilst displaying mechanical symptoms) may be suffering from a different type of fault.) Recovery possibilities: Notoriously difficult drives to recover when they've developed mechanical problems, it is important that as soon as these drives begin to malfunction they are powered down and not used any further. What if I have one of these drives but the symptoms are different?: This is quite possible, they are still prone to all the other problems hard disks suffer from ie. electrical failure, logical failure, bad sectors etc. What should I do?: Call the Data Clinic and talk your problem through with us on 0870 7424 008, or fill out our auto-form and we'll call you back > Data
recovery from Quantum Fireball hard disk drives Please note that all modern hard disk drives are manufactured to very high standards, fail infrequently and have very similar rates of reliability. (c) Copyright Data Clinic
