What to do when your external drive fails

How to properly handle a failed external drive to avoid losing important data

step 01

If you think your external hard drive may be suffering from a mechanical issue, electrical failure or logical problem, you should power it off immediately to avoid unintentional damage to the media.

step 02

Keep your external drive turned off until you talk to an experienced data recovery specialist. If the problem is with the components of the drive itself, the slightest shock can cause damage to its parts, thus putting your valuable data at risk.

step 03

Be sure to contact us for high quality restoration services. To make an event like a drive failure less stressful, SalvageData offers you a free inspection of your device. In addition, adhering to our No Data, No Charge policy, we wont charge you if we fail to recover your data.

If files are not backed up, that does not mean the information is gone for good.
