What is Data Recovery?

Data recovery is the process of salvaging inaccessible data from damaged or corrupted storage media. Ontrack Data Recovery engineers classify hard drive data loss into two categories:

  • Logical Failure – the hard drive is in working order but some data has become inaccessible due to some logical problem such as data corruption, accidental formatting or a lost partition.
  • Mechanical Failure – the hard drive is malfunctioning. Common causes are head crashes or servo motor failure.

Ontrack Data Recovery services offer several service options for hard drive recovery.

What causes hard drive failure?

Ontrack Data Recovery services encounter situations every day where data loss has been caused by accidental deletion, physical damage, power surges, viruses, overwriting and natural disasters to name but a few.

Why Kroll Ontrack Are World Leaders in Recovering From Hard Drive Data Loss

Ontrack Data Recovery services performed the world’s first data recovery over 20 years ago. Since then our engineers have remained at the cutting edge of hard drive recovery by developing an advanced suite of bespoke tools and processes. This has only been possible because of our unparalleled commitment to R&D. Just some of our expert techniques are:

  • When a mechanical failure has occurred, hard disk recoveries are performed in dust-free cleanroom environments where they are carefully dismantled, examined and repaired
  • Hard drives are imaged by making a copy of the disk which is then transferred to a new system.
  • Ontrack Data Recovery tools can “force” the drive to read around the bad area.

IMPORTANT: Attempting to recover the data yourself or the use of an inexperienced provider may lead to further damage to the drive and hamper the chances of a successful future recovery.
