Recovering Data from Hard Drives

Thanks to specialised techniques that have been developed in-house, cutting edge equipment and over a century’s worth of collective experience, Fields are highly adept at hard drive repair! We possess an exceptional success rate and are usually able to recover all data at the first attempt.

Common Reasons for Hard Drive Failure:

Motor Failure
Where the hard drive fails to spin up due to seized bearings. Commonly the result of physical damage from, for example, being dropped.
Electrical Failure
Where the Printed Circuit Board becomes damaged and fails to control power and data. This can be caused by component failure, malicious damage or a power surge.

Head Failure
The Read/Write Heads in a hard drive can fail for many reasons including the natural failure of components through general wear and tear, damage caused by physical trauma and even from dirt finding its way into the drive.
Firmware Failure
Firmware is a piece of software that instructs the hard drive. If this software fails, hard drives can behave erratically or, in some cases, will not work at all. Firmware failure can share symptoms with other problems such as head failure or a drive that is not spinning up to the required speed.

Logical Failure
Logical issues are not physical problems and the hard drive's physical components are working perfectly, but the data is still inaccessible. Examples of this include deletion, the corruption of data and formatting.
