Seagate hard drive Data Recovery
Recently our
client had an incident with fire damage in their location which was occurred
due to an electrical short circuit, entire CPU was melted down and the hard
drive was completely damaged. As the hard drive arrived our engineers have
taken the circuit board out of the drive and cleaned it well and replaced with
new one after taking readings from old PCB circuit board. Seagate hard drive
requires original PCB board readings, which is important to recover data from
the magnetic platters. We have completed two level of cleaning by removing the
residues on the upper surface and the head and PCB board contacts. We have to
blindly work on the hard drive since no upper sticker information is available
which is charred in black, we have worked with the drive by taking information
from PCB board parameters, which got us Model, Part No, Firmware version, Site
code and other information which is required. The model of the hard drive and
the serial no. with other parameters and readings are taken from the drive via
firmware access. The data recovery started in our lab working with the hard
drive internal components. After 20 working days and several attempts for data
extraction, the recovery went successfully with the extraction of about 70% of
useful information from the drive. The required tally database and the user
information which was necessary was prioritized and completed.
