Are there Instances where Lost Data cannot be recovered?

Yes. There are instances where the damage to the hard drive is so severe that data recovery is not possible.

There is neither magic nor miracles in the real world that can help to recover the lost data from scratched, extremely corrupted, or overwritten sectors on the hard drive. That is why as professional and honest as we are: no data recovery specialist ever can guarantee the successful recovery outcome in advance, based on the described symptoms from the customer.

According to our experience, almost every failed hard drive could be recovered if it was timely shipped to us at first signs of failure. It’s hard to understand why people waist their data media watching as the drive slowly dies.

Developing Scratches on Hard Disk Platters

No scratches on failing HDD yet

1. When the drive starts failing, there are no visible scratches on the disk's surfaces.

The drive's platters remain clean and shiny...yet.

Here we go - First visible scratch

2. As soon the first visible scratch lands on the surface, that drive is doomed to die very quick...

3. And finally, what we have now: Absolutely unrecoverable drive. The scratches are all over the platters, the filter (shown with the red arrow) turned black because of dust. The conclusion: too late to recover anything from such wasted drive.

Ruined Hard Drive - lost data

Don’t bring your drive to that hopeless condition. Don’t be afraid to ship your drive for professional investigation and data salvaging, at the most honest price. We won't charge you for our labour in the rare and unfortunate situation where no data is recoverable.

What Our Customers Say...

From Benjamin L. Malibu, CA USA: Fujitsu MHT2040AH laptop - Events:
The computer was on the ground and a person accidentally kicked the side of the computer (exactly where the hard drive is located).
Recovery Attempts (3 months ago):
1.) Used an enclosure to try to extract data. Failed.
2.) Tried to bypass the OS by booting Linux from a CD. Failed.
3.) Sent it to a hard drive specialist's company. They couldn't do it for under $500, so I got it back. Failed.
However, the actual hard drive was never manually tampered with.

THANK YOU! Got it all back, looks perfect...
