With the malfunctioning drive connected to a working computer, you have everything you need to assess the extent of the damage. In some cases, the hard drive will show up as another storage device and you will be able to transfer all files.
This can happen because it’s not your hard drive that’s faulty, but the operating system that’s installed on it.
Unfortunately, most bulk Data Recovery Services cases are not that simple. The contents of the hard drive are often visible, but Windows or Mac OS X is unable to transfer data from it.
Even worse, the disk may appear to be empty. What you need then is data recovery software designed to handle this kind of scenario.
When all else fails, Disk Drill comes to your rescue. In the vast ocean of file recovery programs and apps, Disk Drill stands out with its sleek interface that allows anyone to recover files from hard drive or SD card, or just another storage device in few minutes.
Indeed, it only takes a few seconds to tell Disk Drill what to do, followed by a short wait while the program applies its advanced data recovery algorithms to restore over 200 file types, letting you select what you want to recover and what you don’t need.
