'SMART - Status Bad - Backup and Replace' Hard Disk Error and Recovery

Physical hard disk failure refers to the condition in which data stored in the system becomes inaccessible due to hard disk malfunction. A hard disk is comprised of several mechanical and electronic components. But when these components get affected due to external factors like high intensity magnetic waves, sharp impact, temperature, water or fire, they get physically failed. Also, internal issues like wear and tear, low material quality and poor composition cause hard drive failure. In such cases, Hard Disk Recovery service can come to rescue and recover all lost data.

Hard drive failure is not instant in some cases. The modern hard drives come with an advanced technology known as S.M.A.R.T. (Self Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology). It is a proactive warning system that monitors the hard drive health on the basis of certain parameters and generates reports and warning messages on finding any fault. These parameters are sometimes denoted as hard disk reliability factors, such as temperature, excessive bad sectors etc. So, if a hard drive is anticipated to fail, SMART gives error message as:

"Pri master hard disk: S.M.A.R.T. Status Bad, backup and replace"

'SMART - Status Bad - Backup and Replace' Hard Disk Error and Recovery

Explanation

By master hard disk, error refers to the one, which is being primarily used by computer system to store data. The above warning suggests that users are required to immediately backup all data and replace the failing hard drive with a new one. Hard drives may go bad due to mechanical component failure, electronic faults or firmware corruption.

But in most of the cases related to physical failure, users may need to opt for Data Recovery service to recover their lost files. It can occur due to two basic reasons:

o Backup failure
o Ignoring the S.M.A.R.T error message

Hard Disk Recovery Service

It is a specialized component level service provided by recovery experts to recover data from physically failed hard drives. The processes involved in Hard Disk Recovery start with detailed analysis of the failed hard drive and chalk out suitable recovery procedures accordingly. A physically failed hard drive gets dismantled in sterile lab environments of Clean Rooms and technical procedures like repairing or replacing disk internals, disk cloning, shifting the platters etc. are applied. Data Recovery service experts can recover data in all cases of failures including those which S.M.A.R.T. can't detect.

Stellar Information Systems Limited offers industry's leading Hard Disk Recovery service through Class-100 Clean Rooms. We have been providing recovery service from more than 16 years. The advanced recovery service is provided for almost all makes and models of hard drives as SCSI, SATA, EIDE and IDE including server hard drives and SSDs (Solid State Drives).

How to Recover Deleted Emails and Restore Them Completely

It can happen to anyone. We accidentally delete an email that we really need. And it just happened to be important work file, attachment or picture. So now what? How can I recover that email? Is it at all possible? Surely, it can be permanently deleted?

Well, there is good news and bad news.

Let's start with the good news.

How to Recover Deleted Emails and Restore Them Completely

Restoring Deleted Emails

If you delete an email, it hasn't really gone anywhere. Even if you've emptied your recycle bin or the "Trash" folder in your Inbox - the email still isn't deleted. It's just that your computer system now has no way to figure out where it is. But it's there, still on your hard drive. By using special email recovery tools you can recover deleted emails because these programs identify these 'missing' files and can bring them back to life.

Now the bad news.

Act Quickly and Increase Your Chances

The bad news is you have to act quickly. You only have a small time-frame in which to try to attempt to recover your lost email. Every minute that you waste and continue to use the drive for anything that isn't related to recovering your emails, you severely decrease your chances of successful email recovery. Why?

Well, because your hard drive is constantly overwriting files to make space for new information you put into it. If your hard drive is full and there is not much space or memory available - it is highly probable that the email has already been overwritten and deleted - permanently.

Other Problems with Recovering Deleted Emails

Not all deleted or lost emails go to "Trash" folder. If you have suffered a computer crash or hardware failure or your operating system is corrupted in some way, then it is unlikely that emails you have deleted can be recovered.

Also, if you haven't opened the email at all or it hasn't been deleted the usual way due to file corruption, you probably will have less of a chance to recover and restore the email in its entirety.

Nothing to Lose

Recover deleted email programs search and locate the emails that you have deleted. You can search by entering a specific keyword for example. Then, you can choose to preview the email to see it's contents and if it's been recovered in its original state by the program. You can also select to scan for what ever email program you are using (and need to recover) - either web based emails such as Hotmail, Yahoo and Gmail or Outlook Express.

Best bit is this. Most of these email recovery programs are free to download. When they start scanning your hard drive looking for the deleted email and then manage to find it and when you are completely satisfied that that's your missing email - then you can then proceed to purchase the software.

In essence, you have nothing to lose (if the email is not there - it's not there) and everything to gain.

Well, at least you can get your deleted email back.

Error Message - "Corrupted File" - What Does This Mean?

Have you ever seen an error message like this and immediately broke out in a cold sweat? What does it mean? Is there any solution? The answer, in all probability, is YES.

When you see the word "corrupted" in some of the definitions of the error messages you may encounter on your computer, you should know that corruption can occur for many reasons such as:

You computer may have been corrupted by a virus. It could have been corrupted as the result of a buggy program or software driver you've installed. You may have a bad power supply or motherboard in your computer. Memory could have gone bad as well. If you don't have a good surge protector, electrical surges can result in corrupted drives or files.

Error Message - "Corrupted File" - What Does This Mean?

The reason you should realize this is because if you send your corrupted hard drive to a data recovery service, you might think that, when you have your recovered data back, your problems are over. But, if your drive was corrupted because of a bad component in your computer, you may find that when you get your system up and running again, your data is corrupted once more. (Note: Just because your drive was corrupted does not, necessarily, mean that your computer has a bad component.) Your computer may have been corrupted by damage caused by flood, water or vandalism.. It might have been corrupted by fire, heat or smoke. The corruption could even have been the result of sabotage.

Also, data can become corrupted due to over-clocking your computer. Computers that are over-clocked may not demonstrate any symptoms other than sometimes when you try to print a document, it does not print correctly.

If you notice your computer running slower, this could signal that your hard drive is corrupted and is beginning to fail. Sometimes, when the hard drive begins to fail, it can develop bad sectors which slows performance. If you notice that your hard drive is operating slower than usual, run a diagnostic program that checks the hard drive for bad sectors. If you repeat the diagnostic check frequently, you may notice more bad sectors appearing each time. This is an indication that your drive is starting to fail quickly and should be replaced as soon as possible.

A slower running computer can mean that you need to defragment your hard drive as well. Often defragmenting your hard drive can speed up your computer. Or, you may have too many programs running at start up and slowing your computer down. The solution, in this case, is to disable some of the programs. Slow downs can be the result of an installed software program that has a bug as well.

Of course, the best possible protection against data loss due to files or drives being corrupted, is to develop the habit of backing up your data on a routine basis. We suggest a total backup at least once per week. Then, backup new or changed data at more frequent intervals such as daily.

But wait! Don't panic yet. The good news is that help is probably at hand. The demand and urgency to recover data has resulted in a plethora of data recovery software on the market that can rescue you from a crisis situation.

If the hard disk is working properly, professional service is probably unnecessary. As long as the hard disk is not making any strange noise like scratching, scraping or ticking, data recovery can usually be accomplished by using data recovery software.
