Data Recovery Advice - What to do when your drive stops working

In the event of data loss, we strongly advise you to power off your drive immediately. By keeping your hard drive turned off, you can prevent any additional damage from occurring. We understand that experiencing data loss can be distressing, and we're here to help ease your concerns. Feel free to reach out to our friendly hotline at 1300 001 211 for expert advice on the next steps to take. Remember, the most important thing is to remain calm. Hard drives are intricate and delicate devices, so keeping it turned off is crucial.

Steer clear of unqualified friends, family members, or internet suggestions when it comes to data recovery. While their intentions may be good, following their unqualified advice can lead to risky experiments that might exacerbate the problem. It's best to avoid relying on internet apps, such as Windows check disk or Mac first aid disk check. These applications lack the sophistication required to handle faulty drives and may inadvertently cause data rearrangement, potentially resulting in permanent data loss or making the data recovery process more expensive than necessary. To achieve the highest level of success in data recovery, it's essential to leave the drive in its most original condition.
