How To Recover Data From Corrupted Hard Drive

| January 22, 2018

INTRODUCTION

There is nothing worse, if you are using the computer for an important paper, pictures, or other material than to have everything crash.

They simply know they can type in the information and it magically appears on the screen, following which it can be printed or sent to other people via e-mail or fax. When something goes wrong, and hard drive crashes, they call in a computer tech to make repairs. However, if this happens to you, it is usually possible to make this kind … Read the rest

1) Always keep your tape:

Data Recovery – What To Do When Dealing With Data Loss

| November 30, 2016

Your average computer user doesn’t really understand how data storage works. Most of them just know that if you press a save button, it will just store in something called a ‘hard drive.’ They don’t actually know the science behind it and they don’t really care. As long as they can retrieve their files when they need it, it is all well and good.

Unfortunately, many of us will encounter data loss at some point in our lives. Depending on the extent of the data loss, it can leave a lasting mark on our daily lives.

What Happens To The Files I Deleted On My Computer?

| March 14, 2016

When you delete a file on a computer, it will be moved to the Recycle Bin or something similar (depends on the OS). The files that are sent to the Recycle Bin can easily be recovered if you wish to. If you need to fully erase the trace of the deleted file in your computer, you need to empty the Recycle Bin or delete that specific file from it. Once you delete the file there, it is now permanently deleted. However, the computer has a funny way of describing the file as being ‘permanently’ deleted. It isn’t really deleted permanently. In a sense, being deleted permanently just means that the file is still there but there is no way of reading the file.

Considering that, the file is still inside the hard drive. The only problem is it can’t be … Read the rest
