Looking for a solution to disk failure!


Hi people, I have been using my disk for quite a long time but the other day I heard the drive making some noise and had to restart the system again. But when I did that the disk would not boot and I fear that the data might be deleted or lost. So, if you people have any know about the ways to get this done right or if you can at least suggest me the ways to handle this …it will be a great help.

Re: Looking for a solution to disk failure!


This seems to be a genuine problem. It must be probably due to the “noise” you have stated….there may be some bad sectors in the boot sector or may be the OS has been corrupted. These are all just views but you can’t be sure…..you must try to www.diskemergency.com and make it as simple as possible to avoid complications. There are many ways to get that done and I hope that you get your data back from suitable ways.

Re: Looking for a solution to disk failure!


Noise is normally bad. a slight clicking noise when the drive is accessing data is ok. but normally a noise mean the drive is failing. The noise could also mean that the heads that read and write data may be coming in contact with your hard drive platters this will cause a lot of damage depending on the amount of contact being made. If the drive won't even boot I would suggest talking to a local repair shop and asking about a having the data recovered professionally this will cost so it will depend on how important the data is to you if you want to do this or not.
