It looks like OCZ, the makers of the world’s worst SSD hard drive have gone bust. Those of you familiar with hard drives will remember that this drive would randomly go into hibernation mode and nothing could be done to recover it from this state. The result was all the data on the hard drive […]
data recovery, news, ocz, SSD, toshibaRebuilding a RAID is a complex software driven process that is built into many RAID systems. Rebuilding is used to recreate data on RAID arrays when disks in the array fail. RAID systems offer a degree of data protection from hard drive failure by allowing the RAID array to copy data from the failed disk […]

SSDs (Solid State Drives) are different from conventional hard disk drives (HDD’s) in many ways – the biggest of which is that they don’t contain any mechanical moving parts. Now, when you drop an HDD it more often that not causes a mechanical fault on the hard drive and you’ll need the likes of us […]
Unlike most of a computer’s components, the hard disk is mechanical and can be damaged by both mechanical and electrical factors. As a result, the hard disk is particularly vulnerable to damage and problems. Hard disks are subject to wear and can fail for a number of reasons. Mechanical failure is the cause of most […]

This post looks at how software can recover data from a hard disk drive that has been formatted or had data deleted from it. Fundamental to the whole data recovery process is the way in which the data is written to the […]
We’ve had several of these drives in for recovery now and noticed some common failure symptoms in some cases. It appears that if power is taken from the drive suddenly the drive “kicks back” and moves the head assembly so violently that pairs of heads twist and dig into both the applicable platter surfaces leaving […]

Data Recovery Tips Is a new website with a unique concept: It provides online hard drive fault diagnosis by describing, in detail, the various types of hard drive fault. If you have a broken hard disk the fault diagnosis procedure will walk you through the various types of symptoms associated with each fault with the […]
RAID 1+0 is a blend of RAID 1 and RAID 0 setups and requires a minimum of four disks to build. In a RAID1+0 set up, the data is first mirrored across two drives (a RAID 1) and then striped to the other two (a RAID 0). Put the whole thing together and you’ve got […]

What is NAS?… Do you know?? It stands for Network Attached Storage and as our individual needs for data storage grow and grow, so do the appeal of NAS devices. Here’s a 30 second guide to NAS – with, of course, a bit of data recovery thrown in too…. Well we are a data recovery […]
