The hard disk drive is like the brain of your computer. You don’t want it to fail. But it happens sometimes. To make sure that you recover the maximum possible amount of data, you got to know the ‘how to.’ Data recovery becomes easy when you follow some simple tips. Make sure that a hard drive is installed as the external hard drive on a working computer – this is known as the "slave" computer.
Now install an effective data recovery system on that "slave" computer. May be you don’t have accessibility to any second computer. In that case, you can hook up an external hard disk drive to the defective computer, as the external drive can also play the role of an operating hard drive. But it has to be large enough for holding that recovery disk.
Get the recovery software program installed. It’s best if you download a recovery program from a reliable online source. This makes more sense if your PC has no CD reader. After you download the software solution, make sure that it’s sent to the master drive, C. after the download, follow all the directions that are meant to help you recover the saved files on the hard disk drive. That is pretty much about the ‘how to.’ Data recovery is as easy as it gets after you run the software program. But the hard drive needs to be scanned in the first place. The scan might take an hour or so for every 50 Giga on the damaged drive.
However, if you find that the scan is taking longer than you expected, or if you keep receiving continuous error messages, may be it’s because the damaged drive is irreparably damaged. Chances are high that the data you are trying to recover is corrupted or lost.
