Can All Lost Data Be Recovered?
To understand how data is “lost”, we take a quick look into the concepts involved.
Logical Data Loss speaks of a bit (1) being written into a (0) or vice versa. When that exact same hard disk sector gets written back into a (1), then the data was STILL stored in (0) is now lost. This is how data gets overwritten and “lost”, as a result.
When there is physical damage on the Hard Disk, the platters are the most sensitive parts of any Hard Disk. Physical/Literal damage on the Hard Disk platters simply means that the data on the sectors involved are now at High Risk of being ‘unrecoverable’.
As such, Genesis IT Solutions & Services utilises various technologies and methods that attempt to retrieve (read) the damaged sectors and then proceed to reconstruct the sectors.
So, to answer the question, there is always the possibility of recovering the data from your spoilt hard disk drive. But there may come a point where the damage is irreversible.
