Lenovo SSD Data Recovery | Data Clinic Ltd

Lenovo are a popular manufacturer of SSD hard drives and computers. Their SSD hard drives are often found in their own branded computers, standalone external hard drives and are also be fitted as storage devices to many other types of digital equipment.

Data Clinic are able to recover data from broken Lenovo SSD hard drives.

Common Lenovo SSD Failures

In a computer:
- “Internal hard disk drive not found” error message (or similar) is displayed if the SSD is set as the main boot device
- The computer will not boot &/or the SSD drive will not be recognised by the system
As an external hard drive or other attached storage:
- The drive will not be recognised by the computer or may be recognised incorrectly
- The computer may hang when the external Lenovo SSD device is attached

Lenovo SSD failure is usually because of two main reasons –

SMART failure on the SSD
Controller failure on the SSD

In both cases the fault is because the SSD hard drive has entered an error state from which it can’t recover.

Recovering Lenovo SSD Data

We are able to successfully retrieve the data from failed, unrecognised and unresponsive Lenovo SSD’s by reprogramming them. This allows us to access and extract the data and write it to a new hard drive. We do this because once these SSDs fail, it’s best to not resume using them as they’ll just fail again.

Recovering Deleted Data from Lenovo SSD’s

Due to a feature on SSD’s known as TRIM, it’s virtually impossible to recover data once it’s been deleted. TRIM is usually enabled by default. For more information on TRIM, including how to tell if it’s enabled on your SSD go here: https://www.dataclinic.co.uk/data-recovery-and-the-ssd-trim-feature/

The hard drive I use for work recently died. I hadn't backed up for a few weeks and thought I'd lost out on a fair chunk of work. However, Data Clinic managed to retrieve the data in full (around 3TB) and returned it to me fairly quickly. A little pricey, but worth it. Excellent customer service too, I called up a couple of times and each time they were friendly, helpful and informative.

I highly recommend Data Clinic Ltd. Although on the higher end of the price scale compared to a couple of other companies I contacted; this company is extremely professional and efficient with communication which is why I went with them.Others were a little bit pushy in their sales pitches and one of them failed to get back to me in time.Data Clinic give you the information without pressuring you to choose them which is what I liked. Due to how friendly and genuine they sound on the phone and professional emails I chose them.My damaged external hard drive was not allowing me to access any files. I sent in my damaged one and an empty new one and they were able to retrieve all the data from the damaged one and transfer it to the new one!Initially, when they arranged the old and new hard drives to be collected and sent to their lab, the courier Parcel Force missed two collections but eventually collected it. Due to the inconvenience caused because of this, Michelle who handled my case kindly gave me a £50 discount towards the total cost of the service. She provided her mobile number for easy contact to get updates as well.I had to pay a spare parts charge of £60 before the work was carried out.Once the work was carried out I was sent a final invoice for the balance. There was an extra charge on there for the supply of a hard drive but when I called to query it, Chris kindly ammended the invoice for me.Humans are not perfect and will make mistakes but it's the way the mistakes are handled which gives you a good or bad impression of a company.Data Clinic staff are very friendly and professional and if I ever need their services again I would not hesitate to contact them!Just to note, Parcel Force delivered my old and new hard drive with the recovered data back to me a day later than was promised, but this is not Data Clinics fault. Just be aware that if you use Data Clinic, Parcel Force may delay the collection and delivery. Other than that, I cannot fault Data Clinic for their hard work and professionalism.
