Causes of Crucial SSD data loss
There are many reasons for SSD failures, which affect how data is recovered. Depending on how the data was lost, a professional can determine which route to take to improve the chances of recovering any actionable data.
By learning the causes, you can prevent data loss of your Crucial SSD.
Important: Keep two or more updated backups of your Crucial data to avoid important data loss.
1. Formatting and accidental deletion
These are some of the more common ways people lose their data.
You can accidentally delete some important files or even format your SSD.
The good news is: deleted data is one of the easier recoveries and you can do it by yourself.
You can use data recovery software to restore deleted data. Whether it is recovering a single file or the whole of them, you’ll have to follow some directions to get your data back. Learn how you can recover accidentally deleted files.
2. Physical damages
When solid-state drives fall or suffer physical damage, the data they house can be corrupted and even destroyed.
So, even though Crucial SSD have a long lifespan and are reliable, physical damage, such as fire, water, or accidental dropping, can lead to data loss.
For example, when most solid-state drives are physically damaged, the first thing to check is usually the SSD controller/processor. This section can be described as the heart and soul of the SSD. It’s responsible for pulling data from storage, translating it, and transmitting it via the SATA interface.
Regarding physical damages, the engineer has to examine all the components of the drive to determine whether data recovery is possible. If recovery is possible, the engineers will then embark on repairing the damaged drive first and then attempt to pull data off it.
Data recovery from physically damaged Crucial SSDs needs a cleanroom and in-depth knowledge.
3. Data corruption
Data corruption occurs from viruses, malware, or misuse, such as turning off the device while it’s writing or reading a file. Here, you might want to attempt a recovery by yourself.
Start by scanning your device for malicious infection and eliminating these threats.
Then you can use data recovery software or a backup to restore your corrupted or lost files.
However, if this data is vital, the best bet is to get your storage media to a recovery professional.
